With or without the increase in homes and population in Baldock, it is vitally important that the Council make provision for new sporting facilities.

Even today, there is little in the way of sporting facilities in Baldock - football in particular, where the adult team have been forced to play in Letchworth, Hitchin and Stotfold just to be able to compete at the level they do.

The Youth football club is also a thriving set up and yet they are being expected to make do with limited pitches and no changing facilities.

For years now both the Senior and youth football setups have been knocking their heads against a brick wall trying to realise a facility that they can all call home.

With the population only set to increase, it is now time something was done! How many successful sporting clubs can we associate with Baldock that are actually playing in the Town?
Sport brings communities together - we just need that sporting community coming together in Baldock not in neighbouring towns please!
