26th February 2020
Following the Government plan for reopening announced recently we are pleased to announce a coordinated programme to restart activities at Abbeydale Sports and Community Centre. See here for full government guidance.
Step 1a (8th March) will see Abbeydale Playgroup back in operation as well as other exempted support activities.
Step 1b (29th March) will see our normal youth and adult groups return to the newly resurfaced Artificial Training Pitch.
Step 2 (earliest 12th April) will see more organised children’s activities return.
Step 3 (earliest 17th May) will see the reopening of Phoenix Café Bar and the return of the organised indoor fitness, martial arts and other groups
It is not clear yet when social distancing measures will be relaxed although is clear that the earliest date will be 21st June. Once this happens then we can allow the celebration events etc to happen. In anticipation of this we are now taking bookings for celebration events after 1 August 2021 with a Covid-19 guarantee and that if social distancing is not relaxed in time for your proposed event you will be able to obtain a full refund of monies paid or defer to another date. We are reviewing our disco and other party offerings too.
We now have a new online booking system (click here) that will give you visibility on specific dates and you can reserve online too.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back to Abbeydale Sports and Community Centre.
The best way to contact us is by emailing admin@abbeydale.org.uk and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
