The disgraceful tactics of the council is an embarrassment to both the council and councillors. Publically the council commits to community activities and then privately seeks to undermine a community club like Shenfield.

Shenfield CC is a very welcoming club at the heart of the community. Players of all levels deserve the best facilities that the club can provide. What reason could there be to block the renewal of the practice nets when finance and planning permissions are all in place.

Hundreds of children have benefitted from the facilities at the club and every year many parents give up their free time and offer their services to maintain the club so that children can continue to benefit. What valid reason do Brentwood Council have to oppose this? Brentwood Council should be proud of the facilities on offer in the area and not be resistant to them.

I would like to request that Brentwood Borough Council re-considers its position regarding this matter; we all have a duty to ensure the children of Shenfield Cricket Club have access to safe equipment that is fit for purpose... Please fulfil your duty in keeping the young players safe by allowing SCC to replace the old, unsafe equipment as required .

It is ludicrous that Brentwood Council has opposed replacing our existing nets on the same site.
I would like members of Brentwood Council to visit Shenfield C.C. and explain to our Colts (under 16s) as to why the Nets cannot be replaced, made fit for purpose,at our expense and on the same piece of land.
I think that our children deserve answers, they are the ones suffering as yet another year passes without adequate training facilities.
Have Brentwood Council given the reason for their opposition?

Shenfield Cricket Club has been a large part of my family's lives for the last few years. I feel it would be a huge shame for future families to not be part of this community.

Shenfield cricket club has made me as a cricket player and I hope to continue using the facilities safely. I have been helping out with the coaching and there has been a significant rise in number of girls playing and we all want to be able to use the nets to further are skills safely - Imogen Southcott aged: 14

The Shenfield Cricket Club is an awesome venue for people of all ages to play cricket and come together as a community. The players, especially the children, have the right to play their sport in safety.

My 2 daughters use this excellent community facility & I really feel it would be beneficial to update the rather tired current nets.

Brentwood Councillors should hang their heads in shame. Trying to browbeat Shenfield CC (who do nothing but good for the local community) into submission for inferior terms of occupation by using the nets redevelopment as a bludgeoning tool is truly behaving like a gang of Hectors. Shame on you all.

My son and daughter both play cricket at Shenfield CC and the nets are totally inadequate and dangerous for children /adults to be practicing in. I cannot see any reason why Brentwood Council wouldn't want the best and safest environment for the children of the local community to be taught by the coaches of Shenfield CC, and for this to happen the nets need replacing urgently.

Shenfield Cricket Club is a fantastic club and a brilliant environment for the colts to learn, socialise and get exercise. There are currently two players representing Essex against Australia who have come up through their colts system. The bullying tactics which the are being shown against SCC at the moment are a disgrace. Having lived in the area for over 20 years, it's about time the council concentrated on more important issues and leave this friendly and welcoming club alone so they can continue to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the young people of Shenfield!!
