MUGA Pitch at Park Mead

For the last 4 years we have been planning the change of use of the existing ball court to a Mulit Use Games Area.  This area will be a small sided pitch at 25m x 40m and flood lit in the darker months.  

We have full planning permission for this development and have undertaken environmental surveys to ensure that all local wildlife are safe.  We will also be keeping the whole nature area as it is, this is a important learning resource and local habitat.  

This resource will be located within the school and managed by the school.  Park Mead and other local schools will use this facility for sport and competitive matches.  Out of hours the pitch will be for hire to local sport teams and clubs.  The current expected cost is around £25 an hour to ensure that it is affordable resource and allow access to recreational and competitive teams.  The pitch will be for hire between the hours of 5 -9pm midweek and 9am - 6pm at weekends.  We wish for this resource to support the community to remain as active as possible throughout the year.

Please take a look at the pictures below to give you a better idea of the project.
