Skelmersdale Cricket Club

After moving to the Blaguegate Lane ground the club had a double bay facility installed consisting of 30m strips within a cage. Over the years this had fallen into disrepair and the grass growth around the base of the frame had been a continual problem. It was therefore decided to repalce this facility with a new triple bay facility including run ups and a secure perimeter fence to form a self contained practice area. After seeking proposals and designs the club appointed Verde Sports Crikcet Ltd to install the new facility.

Although the original facility had been cut into a bank the gradient was greater than ECB recommendations so further excavations were required to reduce the gradient to 1:100 along the length. Two Premier systems and one Test Match system were selected with the overall length extending to 33.00m.

An 18.30 x 3.60m triple bay frame was installed and the whole facility surrounded by a 2.40m high Barker Sport Bronze fence.
