Basic Usage Expectations
- No drills/warm ups to be carried out inside the 21-yard line or on any damaged patches on any of the three pitches – this means for example that continued practicing of penalties on a damaged penalty spot will cause further damage to the point of unplayability.
- When possible drills/warm ups must be carried out off the pitch in Pairc de Burca on the clubhouse side area between the steps and the hurling arena.
- When possible drills/warm ups to be carried out in Silverpark off the pitch on Silverpark 2 and on the now restored area in the racecourse corner beyond Silverpark 2.
- The temporary goals to be set up for training where matches or scoring drills are happening to the left or right of the existing goals so as to remove unnecessary wear and tear from our goalmouths.
- When using the temporary goals in Silverpark, return them to a location off the pitch. DO NOT leave them up against our neighbour's garden walls.
- Sweep and tidy up the dressing rooms after use – training and games.
- Always ensure pitches and dressing rooms are locked, lights off when finishing up training / games.
More detail pitch usage expectations / guidelines are enclosed in the attached document.
By Working together we can collectively maintain our pitches and facilities to a high standard which will minimise damage and ensure high availability for training and games
