Action Plan Introduction
Following the Sport England PPS methodology in a city the size of Bristol identifies a large number of key findings and actions. These actions have been collated on an Excel spreadsheet and categorised in a number of ways to provide the PPS steering group with a useful tool that will aid implementation / delivery. The spreadsheet can be filtered to find actions specific to a particular sport, site, area of the city, type of action or level of priority.
Below, the main types or categories of action are described followed by three main action plans:
a. Site specific action plans b. Sport specific action plans c. Priority projects action plan
Main categories of actions
1. Communication with another working group. These are actions that should be undertaken with another steering group or service area to avoid duplication of work. For example the Bristol Access to Schools group engages with all secondary schools on a regular basis and is well placed to help with school related actions.
2. NGB specific conversation. The data analysis and consultation exercise has identified some potential strategic decisions specific to an individual sport. For example, should we look to move junior and mini football on to artificial grass pitches? The action is not to actually do this, but to explore the possibility and potential impact before either setting a specific action or dismissing the possibility.
3. PPS steering group discussion. The data analysis and consultation exercise has identified several potential actions or strategic decisions that affect more than one sport. The action is to explore the possibility and potential impact through discussion with all relevant stakeholders, before either setting a specific action or dismissing the possibility.
4. Research to identify further work. Following the methodology has identified many areas where further information is required to complete a task or to understand the potential impact of the identified issue. For example, several school pitches are identified as available for community use but not used, or not available for community use but in an area where there is
9
potential demand. We need to understand why this is the case and what may be done to change the situation- but only if it would be useful to do so.
5. Prioritisation task. These are specific problem areas that have been identified and require some action- mostly under the “enhance” theme. For example, the poor pitches and poor changing facilities have been identified. The task is to prioritise these actions. See below for information on the prioritisation process.
Prioritising the actions
In order to prioritise the categories of action called “prioritisation task” a scoring system has been used. The criteria used reflect the key findings and the consultation. A simple scoring system of 0, 1, 2, or 3 has been used against every relevant criteria. The exact criteria changes slightly depending on what is being scored, but in general: 0 = not relevant 1 = has some relevance but not a direct impact 2 = is relevant / would have a positive impact 3 = is highly relevant / definite impact
The scoring criteria
The relevant actions have received a score (0, 1, 2 or 3) against the criteria set out below:
Bristol PPS objectives
Protect Not lose any playing pitches or playing field space (unless investment is made to compensate)
Protect Keep teams playing in the city
Enhance The quality of grass pitches through improving the poor and standard pitches (football: poor pitch=3, standard pitch=2)
Enhance The quality of changing facilities, prioritising the multi pitch sites and those most used
Enhance Investment to be made in the most cost effective way (i.e. at sites that do or can sustain the highest usage)
Provide The right combination of pitches through changes at current sites and considering all designated playing field space
Provide The right number of AGPs across the city that are accessible for community sport
10
Sport specific: Cricket Protect The cricket sites within the Bristol boundary to prevent further displaced
demand out of the city Enhance The quantity, quality and availability of the “pay and play” cricket facility
stock Provide New cricket facilities within Bristol to meet the demand from Bristol
residents and prevent any further displaced demand out of the Bristol boundary
Sport specific: Football Protect The overall quantity of football pitches
Enhance The poor football pitches and poor changing facilities at multi-pitch sites
Provide The right combination of 5v5, 7v7, 9v9, 11v11 junior pitches
Sport specific: Hockey Protect The number and quality of hockey suitable (sand based) AGPs in the city Enhance The number of hours that sand based AGPs are made available for hockey
throughout the week Provide Additional playing and training time for the development of hockey in the
south of the city Sport specific: Rugby Protect The current sites within the Bristol boundary so no more are displaced to
outside the city Enhance The large number of poor quality pitches in the city through alternative
usage patterns, improved standards of maintenance and capital interventions
Provide Access to 3G artificial grass pitches in strategic locations that are IRB compliant for competitive training and match play
Bristol City Council Priorities
Area of deprivation?
Neighbourhood Partnership supportive / investing?
A BCC owned (3) or leased (2) site? Initiative supported by the Parks department (if BCC owned and maintained)? Partnership funding available?
11
Project measures Viability- how realistic is the project financially? What money is secured and what funding is likely to be available? Other barriers? Impact on participation (increase=3, sustain if at risk=3, sustain but not at risk = 2)
Sustainability- what is the management structure in place to sustain/ maximise the investment? Current members/people immediately benefitting (high=3, medium=2, low= 1)
Value for money (based on estimated cost and number of people benefitting)
12

• Badminton School is a private girls school and they only let their AGP to the community for hockey use (i.e. no football). • The site is a key site for hockey provision and therefore more information on the future of the pitch would be to the benefit of hockey. • There is no suggestion that the school will consider converting to a 3G pitch as hockey is a key part of the curriculum.

• Current proposal is for the Greenway Centre to take over the management of the field (from BCC) and provide two junior rugby / football pitches. • Pitches currently used by Southmead United FC (Junior Teams) when their Pen Park site is at capacity. • Proposal is part of a wider project to install flood lights on the second pitch at the Greenway Centre and for the users (Southmead Rugby Club) to
make it a training pitch and then make use of the Badock’s Wood site for their junior section. February 2016 • Greenway Centre and Southmead RFC decided not to progress the above proposal.

• School is a PFI school with BAM and is not used by the community. • There is no immediate demand for the cricket or rugby pitches but the football pitches may be in demand if other sites in the area are not
improved or become inaccessible (i.e. Kings Head Lane, Merchant’s Academy School, Whitehouse Centre). • The school has not participated in the Access to Schools work so limited information is held on the potential for increasing community access.

• This playing field is not used by the school and has been previously used by the community. • There was a previous attempt by Mendip Utd FC to access the field but the FA Officer summarise the situation as follows…
o The school told the club that if they wanted to buy the lease off BAM it would cost £30,000 but the lease was only for 14 years. o After some negotiation they were told they could use the site, but couldn’t put anything on it (currently no changing rooms or anything
else). o The club wanted to put containers on it to change in, but were told they could not. o They club have money and wanted to do all the work themselves but were turned down by the school.
• The field is owned by BCC so there may be an opportunity to release the school from their lease. • There is demand in the area for this playing field to be football pitches but there are clearly challenges in making it accessible to the
community.

• The re-development of the site is a priority for the PPS. However it should be noted that the PPS and SFS work carried out to date provide little or no strategic evidence to support some elements of the proposed facility provision.

• Eastville Park is in a very accessible central/east location but is on a significant slope. • Football pitches there are poor, mostly due to the slope, but matches are rarely called off due to the natural drainage. • The ECB prefer Blaise Castle and Oldbury Court as potential venues for new provision due to the high amount of public footfall on this site. • The changing facility is poor but this is a multi-pitch site and is therefore to be considered for investment.

• The BCC project to get the Purdown site ready for the school to use has significant opposition from local residents and is not moving forward quickly.
• The school are working with the Access to Schools group on a funding application to Sport England for a pitch divider system (nets) for their AGP. The plan is to install four nets that will allow for seven areas to be let to the community.
• There are no changing facilities on the site of the AGP but there is potential to increase the hockey usage of the site. The nets will make the site more attractive to hockey as there will be space for a warm up area on the three smaller courts.
• The school have no plans to change the pitch to a 3G one as they use the sand based pitch for a variety of lessons at the moment (hockey, athletics, rounders) in the absence of grass pitches.
April 2016 • Access to Schools money secured. Divider netting to be installed in summer 2016. • Purdown no longer an option for grass pitches. Muller road Playing Field now being considered for off-site playing field provision.
November 2016
• School using Muller Road Playing field for lessons. Investment planned to improve changing facilities on site. AGP divider netting installed and being used by school and community.

• School is a PFI school with BAM. The AGP is used by the community but not the grass pitches. • Access to Schools work has shown that the school field is used by the community for non-pitch sports. • Henbury Leisure Centre is on the same site, run by SLM/Everyone Active. They only run the sports hall, swimming pool and gym (not the AGP or
grass pitches). • The AGP is one of the older ones in the city and is / will be soon in need of re-surfacing. • The AGP is part of the PFI contract. These contracts are difficult and expensive to change so the pitch is unlikely to be changed to a 3G surface. • The school field does not have 4 separate grass pitches marked up at all times.

• The school are building a new 3G pitch (without external funding). Pitch is due to be completed by September 2016. • The school have plans to move their perimeter fence back to its original position before the school was rebuilt (and became an Academy). This
reinstatement of playing field land will enable the school to have more grass pitches.

• Football club have expressed an interest (via The FA) in erecting floodlights. It is very unlikely that BCC would give “landowners consent” for this. Putting aside the issue of the cricket square and the boundary/footpath issues (i.e. there may not the space for the lights)- the main issue is that the area immediately adjacent is a grade II listed park and garden. It is also an old woodland so a bat survey would have to be carried out (impact of floodlights).

• Changing provision is known to be good. Pitch is mostly used for casual play. • Operator is converting a second concrete area to 3G so there will be two small 3G courts there in 2016. 5v5 play possible but too small for 7v7.

Displaced demand (i.e. clubs that are currently playing outside Bristol but would like to be playing within Bristol)
There are a number of clubs who are playing outside of Bristol who would prefer to play within the city. Most of these are from the South Asian community. Some of the teams require play and play standard grounds but others are looking for grounds they can lease on a long term basis, aiming for better quality facilities.
• Bristol Asians Cricket Club (are likely to lose their current home in South Glos in 2017) • Bristol Bangladeshis Cricket Club (seek a ground to own / lease) • Bristol Lions Cricket Club • Bristol Malayalee Cricket Club • Bristol Sri Lankans Cricket Club (seek a ground to own / lease) • Bristolian Knights Cricket Club • Easton Cowboys Cricket Club • Easton Tigers Cricket Club (are likely to lose their current home in South Glos in 2017) • Grendel Cricket Club • PR Royals Cricket Club (seek a ground to own / lease) • West United Cricket Club (seek a ground to own / lease)
In total this represents displaced demand (teams that would like to play in the city) of circa 20 teams. Each team plays 10 home games a season (on average) so this displaced demand amounts to 200 games a season.
Blaise Castle and Oldbury Court Estate are the current pay & play sites in Bristol. They both have carrying capacities on each pitch of 24 games a season. If they were good quality wickets this would be 40 games a season. A good quality wicket at a private club may sustain up to 70 games a season as the cricket squares are larger and can have more wickets on them.
In summary, this suggests a theoretical need for an increase in supply of three good quality private cricket grounds (and a complicated ground share agreement); or five good quality pay & play cricket pitches.

Overplayed football pitches and pitches that potentially could accommodate some additional play
Sport England’s PPS guidance provides a methodology to assess supply (number and quality of pitches) and demand (number and type of teams using the pitches in the peak of the season). This provides figures to allow an assessment of an individual site’s “balance”. It identifies one of three situations:
• The site has some theoretical spare capacity and could potentially accommodate more matches • The site is being overplayed and either improvements are required to allow the site to cope with this level of play, or the number of
matches should be reduced to stop the deterioration of the pitches. • The site has the right number of matches played to sustain the current quality of the pitches.
When using this model to look at a whole city, conclusions can be drawn as to whether there are enough pitches in the area to meet demand. In theory, pitches/grounds with significant spare capacity should be “filled up” before developing new pitches is considered. Similarly, where pitches/grounds are identified as overplayed it suggests that there is a need to find some alternative provision (move some matches to sites that could potentially accommodate some additional play).
If actions are based on this theoretical model alone there is a major risk of these decisions being incorrect or perhaps difficult to achieve in practice. The following warrant further site specific investigation.

Displaced hockey demand
Hockey has several teams from clubs playing outside the city. The clubs affected are:
• BAC Ladies Hockey Club
• Bristol & West Hockey Club
• Bristol Firebrands HC
• Bristol UWE Hockey Club
• Old Bristolians Hockey Club
• Redland UWE Ladies HC
It is accepted that there is demand for further supply of sand based (hockey appropriate) AGPs in the city for both matches and mid-week practice. It is also acknowledged that the current stock of hockey suitable pitches are theoretically enough to serve the hockey demand. There is therefore a need to facilitate more hockey use of pitches in the mid-week and also resolve the barriers that are stopping community hockey use of some pitches for weekend matches. It is likely that the increase in 3G pitch supply (both full size pitches and small courts) will enable football use to move off sand based AGPs, freeing up space for hockey. However, it is vital that no 3G pitch conversions take place that are detrimental to hockey and that hockey demand is revisited when and if a conversion is proposed to ensure that the pitch in question is not required for hockey.

School rugby pitches / facilities
The PPS revealed the extent to which there are rugby pitches on school grounds. The table below identifies the pitches not used by the community. There may be several reasons for this from both the school or rugby club perspective. However there is, in theory at least, the potential to alleviate some of the pressure on club pitches through the use of school pitches.
