The new games area near the Coltishall Village Hall has now been completed and available for use by residents of ALL ages. The play area has been lined for football and Net Ball/basket ball. Other games can take place such as touch ball, Hockey/cricket, using a SOFTER BALL, Volley Ball (equipment not supplied) etc.
When playing Football, players are to keep the ball within the Games Area. Deliberately kicking the ball into neighbours’ gardens is anti social and possibly dangerous to the occupants/properties and must not be attempted. Parents teaching their YOUNG children (under age of 5) to ride a cycle can also use it as a safe training area.
Games that are Prohibited due to damage being caused to the surface are: Skate Boarding, Roller Skating, Roller Blading, Cycling other than Young Children being taught by Parents. Parishioners and user groups will be encouraged to report such misbehaviour and appropriate action will be taken. Youths should refrain from attempting to climb the frame work due to possible personal injury.
The residents of Coltishall should be thanked for supporting this project. This is a valuable asset to the village and it hoped to add other equipments in the next financial year.
