50% is way too much and will reduce the opportunities for local clubs in particular those for youths and children. Keep it fair for all.

I am absolutely appalled by this decision. There are many people who give willingly of their time in order to support and develop children and young people in this area and to see this lack of support for them and what they do is disgraceful. How on earth can you measure who deserves concessions above any other? Truly shocking and lacking in any support for the wider agenda of keeping youngsters active.

Any price increase that limits possibility of sports facilities for young people is a short sighted policy to be deplored.

This pricing decision is unfair. It is critical that affordable sport is available to all for the benefits of the individuals and the broader community.

These facilities provide much need trauning faculties for many of Bath teams -football is a grass roots sports and appeals to boys and girls of all social backgrounds and the price to play and watch should reflect this!

Please ensure that Odd Down remains a community asset and usage is not determined by ability to pay.

BWB is a registered charity and should not be charged the higher rates.

All the youth teams are all struggling with finances now. This will put even more pressure on them and the parents .

Surely a community sports hub should be available for all organisations to use at a fair cost. Price hikes to increase profitability for private operators of the site go against the whole point of having the facility there for the community to use.

All not for profit Youth teams should be granted the same rate. This was always the case when the facilities were managed by BANES.

What a shame the term "community" is used with such disregard by counsellors and politicians!

Increasing usage outside core times might be a better way to increase revenue from the facility, and is an avenue that has not been explored sufficiently. Charging more to already cash strapped clubs will have a negative overall effect.
Appalling .
