Parking
Parking will be mainly on site this year. We will be strictly separating vehicles and pedestrians. Vehicle speed onsite must be 5mph. There will be signs and marshals on the day to direct you to parking.

Parking is FREE, so please use it rather than parking on the road.
We recommend car sharing to make life as easy as possible for all.
All vehicles and their contents are parked entirely at the owner’s risk and Ilkeston Rugby Football Club accepts no responsibility for any loss, damage or theft, however it may occur.

Entrance on the day
There is a NLD admission charge for all non-playing visitors 16+

All non-playing visitors (16+ years) - £3 each
As we have the volunteers on the car park and entrance, the rules are clear to them, so please join in and don’t give them a hard time.
JUST REMEMBER CASH IS KING – Oh and it’s also likely to be the quicker line!

Safeguarding
Please be aware of the following and be proactive in supplying any information that helps with these matters if required:

Changing rooms - Are strictly for teams only - only open to the public for disabled toilet
Public toilets - Please use toilets in The Stute clubhouse
Photography- Please inform us if there is anyone within your playing group that must not be photographed. An official photographer team will be present, but obviously everyone also now carries a camera on their phone. In light of photography being difficult to control, we will therefore presume all photography is OK unless we are informed otherwise, at which point those particular playing pools will be informed that they have a team that cannot be filmed or photographed.

Facilities
Food – Available from BBQ at The Stute Clubhouse - Bacon, Sausage rolls, Burger etc
Drinks – Available from The Stute Clubhouse & Cabin Bar - Soft drinks, tea, coffee, beer etc will be available with a full bar available in the club house. Please Note – Only alcohol purchased at the club’s bars can be consumed on the premises, including the playing fields.
First Aid – Whilst we provides appropriate first aid cover for this event, it is the responsibility of each visiting club to make sure that they adhere to the current RFU requirements regarding first aid provision for their team. If you require first aid assistance then please speak to a member of your pitch management team or the Festival Organiser. The festival first aid is in the Physio room in the changing rooms.

No personal BBQs under any circumstances
Please ensure that everyone that needs to brings a change of clothing or over clothes with them to wear before going in the clubhouse. No one is allowed into The Stute Clubhouse in dirty kit.

Your Club’s Responsibilities
Please remember that your club and teams should be aware of and fulfil their RFU responsibilities in all areas, including for example first aid, safeguarding, risk assessments, registrations etc. This list is not exhaustive.

May I take this opportunity of thanking you in advance for participating in our Tournament and we very much look forward to seeing you on the day and welcoming you to our club. We hope for good weather and an enjoyable day of fun Rugby for all concerned! If you have any queries/problems regarding any of the arrangements, please give me a call

Yours sincerely,
