Venues Needed For Masters Tournaments

We are looking for venues to host Masters Tournaments in Spring / Summer 2022.  The tournaments are usually held between late April and the end of June and will involve up to 8 teams from each of the new Areas. The number of age groups in one place will depend on the venue size.

Each age group will need: 

•   2 well maintained pitches on the same site, for 2 consecutive weekend days. Pitches should ideally be water based, but it is not essential.
•   A club house on the same site as the pitches. Ideally serving refreshments and with adequate changing facilities and showers.  
•   An independent person to host the event. This could be an appointed person from the Area or a club person willing to organise and facilitate any queries at the event and submit results. Also see other items in the notes below.   
•   The Area should appoint a Technical Director and officials, an umpire manager and the umpires of at least level 1 standard.  
•   Availability of first aid kit, ice, defibrillator and clear emergency procedures. A qualified first aider on site at all times. 

Notes the host should produce a programme with team details, provide advice on accommodation and after consultation with team entrant representatives look to organise a tournament event on the Saturday evening.
