Coaching sessions and other matches take place during weekdays. The University of East London use this facility for BUCs games on Wednesdays and school festivals for cricket are also held at this facility.

MINOR / CLUB SPECIFIC ISSUES: Club at full capacity cannot expand anymore

The pavilion is in need of refurbishment. Apart from a ladies toilet there are no separate changing facilities for women and girls. Nets and cage are old and need replacing along with the surface Some vandalism on site

ACTION PLAN OVERVIEW PROTECT: The local plan is required to protect this site

ENHANCE ECB and Club need to work in partnership to seek funding

to improve the pavilion. The existing cage training facility needs replacing along with the surface.

MAJOR / STRATEGIC ISSUES: The pitches are on an old tip and this has caused subsidence over the years which has been addressed on numerous occasions and is being addressed by the club again.

MINOR / CLUB SPECIFIC ISSUES: Current issues are the changing rooms are unable to support mixed sexes due to communal showers. The club is investigating building works to resolve this; there are also restrictions on disabled access to specific club rooms and not changing rooms. Although pitch subsidence issues have been addressed twice in the past 40 years repeat work is due which the club will be undertaking. Plans are underway to level existing subsidence and maximize rugby pitches for mini/midi and juniors, reducing football provision as necessary. The levelling is planned over 5 years. Changing room changes to provide mix sex facilities and improved disability access will be addressed over the next two years. There is also a plan to improve the floodlights on the first team pitch.

ACTION PLAN OVERVIEW PROTECT This site needs protecting as a playing pitch site in the

Local Plan

ENHANCE Rugby Club are to undertake levelling of existing subsidence and maximise rugby pitches for mini and midi and junior reducing football provision as necessary. Club are to undertake changing room changes to provide mixed sex facilities and improved disability access will be addressed over the next two years. The club also has a plan to improve the floodlights on the first team pitch. The priority is to provide a new roof on the pavilion as it is believed to be asbestos that is broken. The RFU are considering in conjunction with the club an Inspired Facility Grant.

PROVIDE Possible future need to find alternative playing pitches for football teams using this site if the rugby club needs to re-designate the current football pitches as rugby pitches.
