Indoor Carpet Replacement

After 20 years, the indoor carpet has reached the end of its life and needs to be replaced this year, probably in early September (after the wall repairs have been completed).

The cost of this, including remedial work to level the floor in several areas and new underlay, will be in the region of £35,000 plus VAT. While this cost will be amortised over 20 years or so (the expected life of the carpet), we do need to increase our income to pay for it; therefore the board has decided to increase the indoor rink fee, as this is directly linked to use of the indoor green.

The increase will be from £3.50 per 2 hour session to £4, effective 1 March 2025. 1 hour sessions will increase pro-rata to £2.

 

From Alasdair on behalf of the Board
