I'm in, be a little late tho.

out sorry guys.

I went to a meeting at Barnwell about our court plans this morning. I've sent an email around describing what happened.

When I was there I was told that apparently we have to start paying to use the court on Sundays too. They want the same hourly rate even though we aren't using the lights. I was given a form to fill in and return. What do we want to do about this?

Paying for sundays is a concern, what exactly would we be paying for? unless the court is resurfaced and maintained better there is no way we should have to pay for sundays. besides the fact that it would be £50 if we played for 4 hours!

Nice work Stu, glad somebody is keeping the pressure on....

paying for sundays

what stops us from showing up and playing? will they lock the gates?? seems weird they are off their rocker.

though we should have a good relationship with them.. thanks Stu!

It's a dilemma. We need to keep things amiable because we don't have another option as a backup and we might get a new court in the future. I don't mind paying a small amount each week but I agree with josh that to ask the same hourly rate is crazy. However, it isn't a public court, it belongs to the community centre, that's why they charge.

Isn't it a bit discriminatory if we are the only one paying for the use of the pitch by daylight?
Debbie sounds quite aggressive, we have to pay for a court which might be turned up into astro.

Fuck those guys, we're the only mugs paying for that court and they want to charge us £200 a month for 8 hours of lights? Lets push efforts into finding a new place to play.

There are a couple of football groups who use it during the day and apparently they pay even though they don't use the lights. But, yes, I agree we should focus our efforts elsewhere

The Shirley court looks sick, definitely worth scoping out

By the looks of things the map is out of date, looks as if it's all changed. I rang them today and they told me that the court is lit and enclosed and other clubs currently use it for netball, so all sounds very promising. I've left my email and phone number with them, so fingers crossed Josh and Lucas scout finds it suitable!

Couldn't make it today in the end. Will check it out Tuesday before polo and report back
