Part 5/7:
The advocates behind Equal Playing Fields are urging the government to prioritize community-oriented spaces instead of continuing to build residential high-rises in every conceivable location. They emphasize the need to reflect on the missed opportunity for pitch providers to contribute positively to grassroots sports.
A pitch provider that embraces accountability has the chance to reshape the landscape of local sports, fostering inclusivity by welcoming groups who have historically faced barriers to access. The ongoing narrative of clubs being evicted from their designated pitches illustrates the urgent need for reliable support, ensuring that football is an inclusive and accessible sport for all individuals, regardless of gender, background, or age.
