Object
To provide and maintain recreational facilities for the village and surrounding area whether for organised sport, or for the public to enjoy on an ad hoc basis.
To ensure the facilities are accessible regardless of age, infirmity, or economic circumstances.
Governance
The Trust, a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation No. 1185601), owns the ground and operates according to the Trust Deed.
That is achieved by recognising 3 tiers of accountability, the Trust, Executive Committee, and sports clubs.
- The sports clubs being responsible to their membership and for the playing facilities for their sport.
- The Executive Committee, which has members from the sports clubs, Trust, and village. This committee is responsible for the day-to-day running of the facilities, the income and expenditure associated with developing and maintaining the equipment, ground, and buildings in agreement with the Trust.
