All potential hirers must familiarise themselves with these conditions at the time of preparing this Ground Booking Form

Legislative Requirements

The Club shall uphold and comply with Council Local Laws and all other legislative requirements, including the Working with Children (Criminal Record Checking) Act 2004 associated with their activities on City property. Seasonal Bookings Summer Season: 1 October – 31 March Winter Season: 1 April – 30 September For bookings outside of your sport’s regular season, a separate booking will need to be made and booking fees may apply. Clubs in season will be given preference for use of the reserves.

For bookings during the summer season, preference will be given to senior cricket clubs for the use of reserves with turf cricket wickets.

Club fixtures for the upcoming season must be forwarded to the Senior Community Development Officer (Recreation) as soon as they are received by the club. It is the club’s responsibility to request in writing any alterations to bookings to suit the home and away fixture – THIS IS NOT THE CITY’S RESPONSIBILITY.

Dogs on reserves within the City Generally all active reserves within the City of Nedlands are designated as dog exercise areas. The City’s Local Laws state that reserves are not for dog exercise (dogs must be on a lead) when an area is being used for sporting or other activities, as permitted by the local government, during the times of such use. Also of importance is the clause stating that a person who is in control of a dog commits an offence if any dog excreta is not removed immediately by that person and disposed of in a lawful manner.

Please ensure that all club members and associates are aware of these laws. Should any member of the public not adhere to these laws a club representative can contact the City’s Rangers on 9273 3500. Storage of equipment in City facilities Storage availability in the City’s halls and pavilions is extremely limited. Should a club wish to store any equipment relating to your bookings at a City hall/pavilion or shed, a request must be made in writing to the Senior Community Development Officer (Recreation). Equipment must not be stored in a City facility prior to written permission being received. Fees and Charges/Specialised Services The fees for hire of the reserves and halls/pavilions and specialised services fees shall be at the rates as fixed by the City of Nedlands in its Annual Fees and Charges Schedule (a copy should be provided to your club each year for reference). Specialised services refers to the initial marking of lines at the start of a season, use of floodlights (after 6pm during the winter season and after 7pm during the summer season) and the installation, removal, maintenance and storage of goal posts. The fees for these services are divided between the clubs that directly use each service.

All fees and bonds can be paid to the City’s Cashier by cheque, cash or by credit card (in person only).

Insurance The City’s Public Liability Insurance Policy covers the City only, and does not cover your club, visiting clubs or any other person. Prior to commencing use of City facilities each season all clubs are required to provide certificates of currency relevant to the insurance listed below (as required):

1. Public Liability Insurance for an amount not less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000). Public liability insurance must also include the good sold extension – this is to provide cover for food and drink being prepared or supplied on the premises. 2. A Contents Insurance Policy. Clubs are fully responsible for their own furniture, equipment and any other contents stored or kept within or at Council owned facilities. 3. A Worker’s Compensation Policy in accordance with the Workers Compensation Act covering all employees (should the club have any).
