Guidelines for all our visitors

Car Parking: There is ample car parking provided on site in the cricket club car park (opposite the Boundary House) to avoid the need to park on the neighbouring streets. If for any reason there are not enough spaces there is Park Lane which is a quiet road, containing a few parking areas at the side of the road, there is also space in the layby just past the Boundary house on the A639 (opposite the cricket club car park) which can be used   We ask you politely to avoid parking on either Church Lane or Little Church Lane as this causes issues with local residents which would like to avoid.

 

Toilet Facilities: We do have toilet facilities which can be accessed by our visitors on site. These toilets are maintained by the cricket club so please respect these facilities.

 

We kindly ask that nobody urinates on the field at any time, we have received complaints from residents in the past where the police and the council have been involved so we need to avoid this at all times.

 

Respect: Like most grassroots football clubs we are a strong believer in ‘Respect’ of everyone involved in Grassroots football, not least the referee. As a club we promote the use of young referee’s and give them the confidence to officiate games after passing their qualifications. We ask that all visitors to our site respect the referee’s, young or old, male or female, without their willingness to officiate games we would not be able to play.  We ask that supporters of both teams encourage the efforts of both teams and act respectfully at all times, creating a fun and friendly atmosphere that encourages both teams players to perform the best they can do.

 

Drink Bottles/Rubbish: We hire this site from the cricket club who have kindly allowed us to utilise their facility as we were in need of additional pitch space. Can we please ask that you kindly pick up any rubbish from the pitches before you leave and ensure these are all placed in the bins in placed around the site.  We really appreciate you adhering to this.

 

Team Colours: Methley United AFC play all their home games in Red tops, black shorts and red socks.

 

Dogs: Dogs are welcome on site but they must be kept on a lead at all times for the safety and protection of everyone on site.

 

Smoking: We kindly ask that all visitors to our sites refrain from all forms of smoking (including e-cigarettes and vaping), Methley United AFC fully supports the FA’s Smoke Free side lines campaign, to provide a safe, smoke free environment for players to enjoy their football.

 

Methley United AFC is unable to take any liability or responsibility for failure of managers, coaches, parents/carers or players to adhere to these regulations. Although we try and maintain the cleanliness of our toilet facilities, you use these at your own risk.

On behalf of everyone at Methley United AFC, we wish you a safe trip over and look forward to welcoming you soon.
