Full text:

As a resident of Baldock with two primary school age children, I feel it is imperative that sporting facilities are not overlooked when planning for the future of North Herts. Providing facilities and activities for the younger generations I feel is a really useful way in involving them in the local community. Sport provides children with vital life skills such as team work, self-pride as well as promoting a healthy lifestyle.

In contrast, a lack of activities and facilities can lead to a sense of boredom which in turn will result in the younger generations finding their own "entertainment" which can have a negative effect on the local community.

Our local population is only going to increase in the coming years, so please ensure that as part of the local infrastructure, suitable and sufficient sporting facilities are provided.
