STUDENTS

• 201m from Whitefields Rd (South East)
• 215m to Dingle Lane (South)

LOSS OF EXISTING
GREEN SPACE
• The proposed site is a football pitch which is unusable for the vast majority of the year due to extremely poor drainage. As this pitch is unplayable, students at the Academy are not able to access a full PE curriculum as lessons planned for this pitch are cancelled or moved due to the increased risk of injury. This 3G will accommodate other sports in the school day to enhance our PE and extra-curricular provision.
• The school maintain plenty of green space with a further 2 rugby pitches and a cricket pitch.

LIGHTING
• The FA approved lighting system is LED and the lux levels outside of the pitch area are minimal.
• There will be absolutely no floodlight pollution observed from outside of the school grounds.
• Lights will be set electronically and will automatically turn off at the end of the session. Therefore play and lighting will never continue beyond the set hours.

HOURS OF USE

NOISE ANDDISTURBANCE
• The facility is as far from housing as it can be and the professional conclusion is that noise could be noticeable but will not be intrusive.
• To ensure we are working with our community, the hours of letting at weekends will be limited and no later than 5:30pm Saturday and 4pm Sunday.

DISTURBANCETO WILDLIFE
• Surveys have shown the proposed venue will not result in adverse impacts to any sensitive ecological receptors, biodiversity or protected species
• As no trees need to be removed for this proposal, damage to local wildlife will be limited.
• The plans include additional tree planting to the North of the facility.

DEMAND
• In Solihull, there are only two FA sanctioned 3G pitches available for youth football, both of these are located in North Solihull.
• South Solihull is featured on the FA Playing Pitch Strategy. There is a clear need for this facility as indicated on the FA Local Football Facility Plan (LFFP). The FA LFFP identifies Solihull’s need for 6 more 3G pitches now and 9 by 2028 and has identified TGAS as key priority project

COMMERCIAL VENTURE
• This is not a commercial venture.
• The primary purpose of this proposal is to improve sporting facilities and therefore sporting provision for the young people at TGAS.
• Local clubs have and will be consulted to ensure the 3G meets the needs of our community. “Club Nights” will be created whereby a specific club uses the 3G for that evening thus creating a safe and welcoming atmosphere conducive to positive outcomes.

VISUAL POLLUTION OF BANNERS AND ILLUMINATED
SIGNS
• As this is not a commercial venture, there would be no need for advertisement of this type.
• Football clubs would be those that our students currently play for and who would be signing up to a lengthy contract (which could be ended by SLS if they do not keep to the service level agreement).
