Dear Members,

Following careful consideration, the Board of Directors has reached a decision regarding the presence of dogs at our ground.

With immediate effect, dogs on leads will be permitted on the far (hospital) side of the ground during matchdays. This decision has been taken to enhance the matchday experience for all spectators, including visiting supporters, while maintaining the safety and comfort of players, officials, and other attendees.

Please note that dogs will not be allowed on the concourse outside the clubhouse, changing rooms, or inside any club facilities. This restriction is essential to ensure hygiene, accessibility, and the smooth running of club operations.

This policy follows an 18-month trial during which dogs were not permitted within the ground. The Board reserves the right to review and, if necessary, reconsider this decision at any stage during the settling-in period.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in helping us implement this policy effectively, ensuring that Sidmouth RFC remains a welcoming and enjoyable environment for everyone.

Yours sincerely,

Matthew Barrett
SRFC Chairman
