Terms and conditions for hire of grass and synthetic sports pitches

6.1. It is the responsibility of the hirer to effect any insurance cover the council require to cover the risks to which he or his organisation may be exposed to arising out of or by reason of hiring and the indemnity given in these terms and conditions.

6.2. The hirer shall effect Public Liability Insurance Cover for no less than £5 million and provide the council with a copy of their current policy certificate. Documents together with Hirer name, address, contact telephone number and club name should be sent by email to [email protected]

6.3. Where an individual (not a club or organisation) hiring pitches has no insurance of their own, then the hirer may pay to use the council’s standalone hirer’s liability policy at the time of making their booking.

6.4. If the hirer purchases the council’s standalone hirer’s liability policy the hirer must ensure that no act is committed in breach of the council’s insurance cover and must ensure familiarity with the terms and conditions of the council’s policy. Details of insurance cover will be made available to the hirer on request.
