The Town Council continues to stall on a meeting despite the growing list of names behind this request. It is exhausting to keep pushing when the path ahead remains blocked, but walking away is not an option for anyone who uses these courts. I am still here and still working to get an actual answer.

Reaching this level of support feels heavy because it proves how many people are tired of losing access to our courts after dark. I am exhausted by the constant uphill battle against the council but seeing this momentum keeps me moving forward.

Get the lights up already. Oakham is falling behind the rest of the county.
It is honestly ridiculous that we have to stop playing so early in the winter. We want to play after work like everyone else.
So frustrating having to travel to other towns just to get a game in. Keep our local club alive for the winter months.
Modern lights are barely noticeable from the street anyway. Stop blocking progress just because of some NIMBYs.
My kids love playing here but we cant get any court time during the week because it gets dark so fast. Lights would fix this instantly.

PLEASE!!! Need to be able to play after 4pm. It is the only way some of us can fit exercise into our lives.
