Weather considerations

There is no indoor cover space available in the event of very bad weather. Any cancellation decisions necessary will be communicated as early as possible taking into account prevailing and forecast conditions

Kit considerations

Teams should be in uniform colours as far as possible but bibs will be available in the event of clashes

Parking and spectators

Use the main leisure centre car park at The Bridge.

Spectators (eg parents) are allowed but must view through the fence from outside the multicourt

Toilets

The nearest toilets are at The Bridge leisure centre

Schools should implement their own protocols linked to their players visiting the toilet when necessary
