SUNDAY 30th JUNE GIBSON PARK IS CLOSED - GROUNDS WATERLOGGED

The primary responsibility of the club is to the safety of players. On weekends especially the club must make the decision on whether or not a ground is safe to use as the City Council cannot inspect all grounds. The attached photos indicate the state of Gibson Park this morning. While other sports may consider it safe to play on a ground like this the potential for knee and ankle injuries in these conditions is greatly increased. The club closed grounds reluctantly, but with the best interests of play also the primary consideration.
