SOD FARM - PARKING AND LOCKING THE GATE:

Please do not park on Spratt road.
There is ample parking inside the property.

If you are the last one to leave lock the gate.

If you are the first one to arrive open the gate.

The combination to the lock at the gate is "0 - 6 - 28".
So that would be two turns to the left to 0. One full turn
to the right and then to 8 and then back left to 28.

ONE PLAYERS COMMENT:

I have read the last few emails regarding people's conduct on
the fields at St. Paul's, and at Nortel. Even as a pretty
infrequent player I am concerned about this, enough so that
I have to send this to you.

As a group, we ought to be concerned enough about our own
members' conduct that we make the effort to police ourselves.
Lest others take it upon themselves to do the job for us.

As guests, we have to respect the wishes of our hosts. Lots
of us want to enjoy a frosty one after the game, but only if
that does not jeopardize the goodwill we have built up with
those who, through access to their facilities, essentially
sponsor the league. Nor should we antagonize those whose
goodwill we wish to pursue.

I would ask that teams make a pact with themselves that they
learn what is expected of them at any given venue and behave
accordingly, especially in any so-called 'sensitive locations'.

We really only have two choices, one we get along with our
hosts and abide by their wishes, or two, we find other fields.
Even on our own fields though we should remember that there
maybe by-law or contractual obligations for insurance purposes
etc., that we'd be best to be mindful of.
