3G pitches will destroy club hockey. Thetford isn’t the only club this is happening to - just in Huntingdonshire alone St Neots moved pitches a few years ago, Huntingdon Ladies lost Hinchingbrooke and St Ives faces losing their pitch to 3G. Multi purpose pitches that suit all please!

Hockey is a sport that should be supported, not bulldozed out of the way. All sport should be accessible to all, not just those with far too much money.

The FA can swoop in anywhere in the country and plonk a 3G down as the FA is absolutely minted.
Hockey does not have this money and as a national sport, including olympic gold medals, we should be seeking to promote hockey, not removing its facilities

This is so unfair. If this is to take place then please provide the Hockey club another place in Thetford

A successful club should not be moved just because it means better business. At least find or provide them with a decent alternative, or even better LEAVE THEM ALONE!!!

You can play football on a Astro turf and so leaving it as it is means that there is a more inclusive facility.

Hockey is a sport not funded by the million pound industry that is football. It needs to be supported and not sold on to others.

I would be devastated if we were to lose the MUGA in Thetford. I have played hockey for over 35 years and now both of my young children enjoy the sport too. We need to keep it in the town!

I know the pleasure my family and others get playing and being generally involved with hockey in Thetford. I support this petition.
We need to keep hockey alive in Norfolk!
