- Members must adhere to good hygiene practices throughout their time at the Club
- Equipment cannot be shared within a session. Players should bring their own bats, and any equipment belonging to the Club must be cleaned after use.

- Proper hand washing with soap (or hand sanitiser as a second best) should occur before and after any activity at the club.
- Members must bring their own drinks bottles which are brought in and taken away every session.
We appreciate the above measures are not ideal, but they are in place for the safety of everyone at the club. If anyone fails to observe these measures or appears to be ignoring them, they will be asked to leave with immediate effect.
As soon as we are allowed to ease these restrictions, we will let you all know.
We are committed to the safety and welfare of its members. As such, we will take the following measures:
We will keep members updated with changes in processes or protocol relating to Club activity
- We will keep communal areas closed where possible until restrictions are further lifted, so no access to Kitchen, Social Area or changing rooms
- We will implement a booking system to limit the numbers attending sessions to enable social distancing, using Whats App

Our proposed layout for practise will be as follow:
The disabled toilet door will be kept open for people to use to wash their hands only.
Cost per 55 min session will be £2, if there is space and you are able to book onto the 2nd session on the same day, there will be an additional £1 charge.
CORRECT MONEY MUST BE BROUGHT AND PAID PRIOR TO YOUR SESSION
