We encourage spectators to consider all weather conditions by bringing an umbrella, sun cream and their own bottled water.
Spectators are reminded that in the event of inclement weather prior to the game starting, any decision on the prospects of play will not be made by the Club, but by the umpires. Should the Club need to communicate any prospects of play this will be done at the earliest opportunity once the requisite information has been passed to Club officials by the umpires
The minimum age for a child (anyone under the age of 18) to attend an event unaccompanied is 14 years old. Children under 14 must be accompanied by a responsible adult*. It is the responsibility of the ticket purchaser to check before buying tickets that they comply with these age restrictions. Whilst there is a minimum age restriction in place, parents/carers are responsible for deciding whether their child (aged 14-17) needs to be accompanied by a responsible adult based on their general developmental maturity and their awareness of the potential risks.
