I urge the Council to remove all obstacles to the provision of new practice net facilities at Shenfield Cricket Club and to withdraw its attempts to persuade the Club to relinquish its rights as set out in the Deed of Gift from its founder President Raymond Courage - which are so clearly intended to ensure the future prosperity and security of the Club that he loved.

Brentwood council... Why are you blocking the net replacement when you have already granted planning permission for a replacement?
Brentwood Council you need to explain yourselves, equally you need to consider the implications if someone is injured as result of the old, faulty nets... You would be required to account for your actions.

We have well over 200 children each week and the facilities simply aren't good enough. If something isn't done then some of them will lose interest or worst get injured whilst playing. They are in desperate need of upgrading and there is no reason why the council should prevent this.

All we want to do is make cricket better for youngsters in the local area. What valid reason do Brentwood Council have to oppose this? Brentwood Council should be supporting us in making a difference to local kids, come on say yes to the nets.

Regardless of the reason behind this decision the council should not be using the safety and enjoyment of the local kids as a bargaining tool. They should be backing the club to provide the best possible facilities for the hundreds of people that use them.

This successful club should receive help and encouragement from the Council to provide safe and up to date facilities for children and adults alike. Cricket is an important team game that is sadly not played enough in schools these days so local clubs should receive as much help and encouragement as possible.

I feel it is utterly ridiculous that the council is preventing the facilities to be renewed and to be kept safe. Please use your common sense and lift the embargo.

What possible grounds do the Borough Council have for blocking Shenfield Cricket Clubs's request to upgrade their practise facilities? Surely the fact that the current facilities are unfit and dangerous is reason enough to allow SCC to replace them.

Ridiculous! There are far, far more serious issues the council need to expending energy on - limiting the ability for children and adults to participate in sports, be active and healthy in a safe environment is not something they should be focused on - facilitate don't frustrate.
