Caldy Rugby Club Announces Abandonment of Game Against Bedford Blues Due to Unsafe Pitch Conditions
Caldy Rugby Club regrets to announce the unfortunate abandonment of the highly anticipated match against Bedford Blues, scheduled for 2nd December 2023. Despite the Club’s best efforts and the dedicated work of the groundskeeping team, it was determined that the pitch conditions posed a potential danger to the players.
The decision to abandon the game was not taken lightly. The Club’s top priority is always the safety and well-being of the players, and after thorough consideration and player input, it was deemed that certain areas of the pitch had not thawed sufficiently to ensure a safe and fair contest.
Caldy Rugby Club acknowledges the disappointment this may cause to our loyal supporters, both locally and those who may have traveled to witness the exciting clash. The Club appreciates the understanding of the fans as safety is paramount in all decisions made by the organisation.
In light of this unfortunate circumstance, all tickets purchased for the original fixture will be automatically transferred to the rearranged game, ensuring that fans do not miss out on the thrilling action that was anticipated. The rescheduled date will be communicated promptly once confirmed.
Caldy Rugby Club sincerely apologises for any inconvenience caused to fans, sponsors, and all stakeholders involved. The Club remains committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all involved in the sport.
“We deeply regret having to make this decision, but the safety of our players is our utmost concern. We appreciate the understanding and support of our fans, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back for the rescheduled match,” said Gareth Davies, Director of Rugby.
