Parking @ Crusaders

With the summer (whisper it!) here, and the weather looking up, there’s going to be many more of us out in Whitfield Park each week, between training and games. This has, in the past, led to congestion in the car park, overflowing onto the road.

It’s always best if we can avoid parking outside the grounds, as it keeps the roadway clear, and doesn’t impose on our neighbours either side.

We recently erected signage outlining where is best to park during dry weather. These signs give a reminder to park on the grass leading to the pitch FIRST when the ground is hard/weather is dry upon arrival at Whitfield Park. This helps ensure not only that we can manage the traffic volume, but also that we can ensure access to the playing fields in the unlikely event of an emergency.

In the diagram below, you can see the best place to park, ensuring nobody is blocked in and maximising the space available. Please use the grass parking area first when possible, with later arrivals using the space closer to the dressing rooms/toilets.
