There have been 2 recent incidents of members being hurt by balls rebounding out of the practice nets.
We have examined the nets closely and believe that they remain safe to use, although we will be looking at adding some additional protective cladding round some of the metal frame that isn't currently covered.
We would like to remind members that they MUST only hit balls into the nets from the mat located in front of each net. Under no circumstances should balls be hit from further back, as this is a significant Health and Safety risk.
We have also put signage up reminding members that they are using the nets at their own risk.
