Email Template SECTION 9 – PLAYING PITCH PROVISION 9. Playing pitch provision Introduction 9.1 This analysis of playing pitches has been undertaken following the methodology outlined by Sport England in ‘Towards a Level Playing Field – A Manual for the Production of Playing Pitch Strategies’ (Sport England and CCPR 2003). 9.2 It considers voluntary participation by adults and young people in competitive: • football • cricket • rugby • hockey. 9.3 This section presents the key findings arising from pitch specific survey work and consultation, highlighting areas of concern and opportunity. It also summarises the key issues arising from general consultations undertaken as part of the PPG17 assessment. 9.4 The following areas are considered: • the current picture – a review of current participation trends and playing pitch provision in England for pitch sports and outdoor sports, at national and local levels • methodology – a summary of the process advocated in ‘Towards a Level Playing Field’ • the current position supply and demand situation– a quantitative and qualitative appraisal of current playing pitches across Charnwood and an evaluation of demand for pitches in the borough • application of Sport England’s Playing Pitch Methodology (PPM). Charnwood Borough Council - Open Spaces, Sport & Recreation Study Page 206 SECTION 9 – PLAYING PITCH PROVISION Context Active People survey 9.5 The Sport England Active People surveys 2005/6 (Active People Survey 1) and 2007/8 (Active People Survey 2), suggest that football is one of the top three sports nationally in terms of percentage increase in participation, with an additional 122,000 people taking up the game between the two surveys. 9.6 The breakdown of participation by sports affecting this playing pitch strategy, and the change in participation between Active People Survey 1 and Active People Survey 2, is shown in Table 9.1 below. Table 9.1 - Sport by sport results – Active People Survey % of the adult % change in % of the adult population (16 participation Sport and population (16 plus) taking recreational plus) taking part at part at least activities least once a week – once a week – 2007/08 2005/06 +0.21 (statistically Football (all) 4.97 5.15 significant) +0.01 (not statistically Cricket 0.48 0.49 significant) +0.10 (statistically Rugby Union 0.48 0.49 significant) +0.01 (not statistically Hockey (field) 0.23 0.24 significant) 9.7 The results for the first quarter of 2009 indicate that between 2008 and 2009, the proportion of people participating once a month or more has: • shown a statistically significant decline for rugby and football • remained static for hockey and cricket. 9.8 Key national statistics, trends, issues and implications for future demand for playing pitches are outlined in Table 9.2 overleaf. This information is based on Sport England National Governing Body (NGB) guidance packs that outline the participation status for each sport. This context will be important in determining the future demand for pitch sports in Charnwood.

Current provision Quantity 9.9 There are a total of 211 pitches in the borough. These sites are listed in Appendix L. This figure includes all known public, private, school and other pitches whether they are in secured public use or not. The existing pitches comprise of the following: • 79 adult football pitches • 44 junior football pitches • 16 mini football pitches • 40 cricket pitches • 21 rugby union pitches Charnwood Borough Council - Open Spaces, Sport & Recreation Study Page 209 SECTION 9 – PLAYING PITCH PROVISION • 1 rugby league pitch • 12 synthetic turf pitches. 9.10 Of these 213 pitches, 141 (66%) are full-size adult football, cricket and rugby pitches. This equates to circa one pitch for every 903 adults in Charnwood. This ratio of pitches to adults ranks Charnwood as average in comparison with many other authorities for which data is currently available (from PMP’s database) as shown in Table 9.3. Furthermore, the number of pitches to adults is above the national average. 9.11 With the exception in the reduction of a junior playing pitch at Lodge Farm, pitch, provision is consistent with that that was recorded in the 2007 Options Appraisal although some pitches were not marked out at the time of the initial site visits.

Three of these pitches are 3G pitches. These pitches are suitable for competitive adult football matches and can therefore potentially alleviate shortfalls of adult grass football pitches. 9.13 There are also a number of pitches located on school sites that do not allow formal community use. These pitches are not included within the 213 pitches identified and will be discussed later in this section.

    The Mini & Youth Rugby Blueprint Roadshow October – December 2013 Feedback Report Summary The Mini & Youth Rugby Blueprint Roadshow took place between October and December 2013. The roadshow visited 27 venues around the country and was attended by more than 500 people. The purpose of the roadshow was to give all rugby stakeholders a chance to share their views on how we shape the mini, junior and youth game in the lead up to Rugby World Cup 2015. In recent years a great deal of work has gone into considering how the game is played, delivered and organised for young people up to the age of 18. The Age Grade Competition Review has been in process for a couple of years, working on producing a recommended competition and playing framework across clubs, schools and colleges. The aim of the blueprint roadshow was to share recent evidence from players highlighting why they play and why they might have stopped playing and to research the views of stakeholders on the best way forward for the game. The challenge is to provide a game format, playing opportunities and support based on the needs and wants of young people. By getting this balance right we aim to ensure that more young people start, remain and choose a lifelong friendship with rugby union, strengthening our clubs and growing the game in the communities around them. Roadshow Format and Method At each roadshow event, the audience was given an opportunity to consider feedback from players aged 7 – 18 about why they play rugby union (and sport in general) and the reasons why they stop playing.

  • AGM 2017 Hon.Sec. Annual Report
    ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Belgrave Rugby Football Club Thurcaston Road, Leicester President: Brian Hesford Wednesday, 28th June 2016 7.00 p.m. Annual Report: Season 2016 - 2017 This report reviews the activities of Leicestershire Rugby Union Ltd. for the season 2016 - 2017. Administration and Governance The Management Committee remained as elected during the year. During the season, the Management Committee met six times and there were two Special General Meetings and one club meeting. Attendance at the latter meetings was varied and reasonable. However, some clubs were again still not represented at any General Meetings and it is hoped that these clubs will replace their current LRU Representatives with persons who are more readily available and absorbed in County matters. Attendance at the six Management Committee meetings has been: B. Hesford 5 P. Harding 4 R. Green 5 R. Hickson 4 P. Howard 6 M. Powell 4 S. Rice 6 D. Toon 4 K. Swift 2 B. Welford 1 P. Green 4 K. Whitcombe 6 During the season, a continuous review has been undertaken of the committee structures within the union, its constitution, and its processes. Development plans for the season 2017 – 2018 will be discussed at the end of the AGM. The number of RFU Non-Voting Member clubs currently stands at 6 (including the University Clubs) with 28 RFU Voting Member clubs. There are now 24 clubs in Leicestershire that have become incorporated to give them some form of limited liability. It is hoped that those six eligible clubs not currently incorporated will consider incorporating during the next twelve months in order to give their officers and members some protection against any legal action for negligence that may be taken against their clubs.

  • Club History
    Club History Inception: the 1950s and 1960s In 1956 a group of 15-year-old school leavers from Players School and Cottesmore School had nowhere to play so they formed their own club. Nottingham Moderns RFC was formed. The early matches were played on rented pitches around the city. With the help of old school masters and the youth service, steady progress was made. However, financing the new club was a problem. On most occasions the players would make their way to away matches by public transport, resulting in all day adventures to various parts of the East Midlands. A good relationship was formed with the local colleges and sports teachers, and with the Welsh Exiles. This led to a period of rapid growth that resulted in sustained fixtures with more established local sides and also games against the 2nd XV teams from the Midlands senior teams.[3] Settling down: The 1970s The year 1975 was momentous in the history of the club. The club finally secured a home at Wilford where they remain today. In the same year they became the first club from Nottinghamshire to win the Three Counties Cup (Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire & Lincolnshire). The 1st XV also reached the semi-final of the Midlands Clubs Championship. The most successful season in the club's history was probably 1974–75, with the 1st XV, 2nd XV, and 3rd XV losing just three games each all season.The 1st XV and 2nd XV also won the respective County Cup competitions. All of this was accomplished as a nomadic club, with no fixed home, playing on rented parks pitches, and drinking in numerous local public houses to entertain their opposition.
