The future of the club depends on the youth and the facilities, without proper nets we cannot attract new talent and existing talent will move to other local clubs.

Council should recognise this is a worthwhile thing for the community - here's hoping they back the expense

I fail to understand why the council would object to providing opportunities for Local youngsters to play cricket which keeps them engaged with the community and off the streets.

As a parent, I believe that the nets at Shenfield Cricket Club are a vital and safe way for my son to learn to be a better cricket player.

Not sure why the council are blocking this request, it's seems very unreasonable to block a plan for improvements and up grades of cricket nets that will benefit the youngsters in our community, unless they have an ulterior motive!!!!

It is an absolute disgrace that the club has been denied new, safer nets for 4 years. To go out of their way to deny hundreds of colts safer practice facilities is irresponsible, short sited and quite frankly a disgrace.

I'm sorry to see the council don't see the benefit that improved nets would have for all of the children and adults of Shenfield.

Please see common sense and allow Shenfield CC to install the new nets. The club is at the heart of the local community.

I thought we were supposed to be encouraging our youngsters to take part in sport! Brentwood Council should be ashamed of themselves.

Sad to see the Council wanting to stop access to sports and it's resulting health benefits, to the children of Shenfield CC.

I am at a loss to understand why the Council are opposing this essential work - the usual reason is 'the cost'. Yet this is self funded.

With planning permission and funding in place the council has no reason to block this- it benefits hundreds of adults and kids in our local community!

The council should be supportive of Shenfield CC. They have the funding in place and wish to replace the existing nets for the benefit of the local community. Please let common sense prevail!

I have a son who plays for Essex Under 15s and Shenfield which is a fantastic cricket club and really promoting young talent to excel in cricket. It is a necessity that we are granted permission for our new nets which is essential for youngsters like Rishi to practice and develop their game safely.

I feel the council , are bullying a small cricket club. A club that provides an important service to the local community . Maybe they intent a land grab , to build houses on a lovely green area.
