  • Playing Pitch Strategy
    South Northamptonshire Council Playing Pitch Strategy December 2007 Introduction 1.1 During August 2006, South Northamptonshire Council commissioned PMP to review and update the previous countywide playing pitch strategy completed in April 2002, focusing specifically on the district. The strategy has been developed following the methodology outlined in “Towards a Level Playing Field.” 1.2 This strategy builds on the recently completed PPG17 compliant open space, sport and recreation study which considers the provision of open spaces district wide, including a range of outdoor sports facilities. The level of detail within this document provides a bespoke assessment of the supply and demand for different pitch sports and outlines specific priorities for future provision. This is particularly important in light of the population growth within the local area. 1.3 The key objectives of this playing pitch strategy are to: • analyse the current level of pitch provision, including the geographical spread and quality of pitches • assist the Council in meeting the requirements for playing pitches in accordance with the methodology developed by Sport England in conjunction with the National Playing Fields Association (NPFA) and the Central Council for Physical Recreation (CCPR) • identify the demand for pitches in the district • run the Playing Pitch Methodology (explained in detail in section five) to ascertain levels of under / over supply • identify how facilities for pitch sports can be improved to meet the needs of the community • provide strategic options and recommendations including - provision to be protected - provision to be enhanced - re-allocation of pitches - proposals for new provision Playing Pitch Strategy 1 • provide information to help the decision making process and determine future development proposals including the production of specific local standards relating to playing pitch provision.
