Facility management in community rugby clubs

A sports facility is what your members attend to play your sport, as well as the amenities and equipment used by your club. It is a building, structure or specific venue designed for a specific purpose or function. This also includes structures to support the involvement in your sport such as a canteen, scoreboard, lighting, heating, cooling or change rooms.

Most importantly, regardless of size or location, it is important to ensure your facilities are clean, safe and in good working order to encourage members, supporters, and visitors to attend your club.
