Our hosts tonight, Brocton, have confirmed some social distancing and covid-related arrangements for our visit to Silkmore Lane this evening.
We request that all supporters travelling tonight read the advice from Brocton below…
Silkmore Lane has a 100-seater grandstand and a 100-standing grandstand and both will be marked to indicate social distancing. There will be a one way system into and out of each grandstand and a foot operated hand sanitiser for use at entry. Supporters wishing to view the game from around the perimeter rail will be asked to social distance and there will be markings on the perimeter pathway at 2m distances.
At entry to the ground supporters on foot or by vehicle will be asked to provide information for track and trace. Payment for entry can be taken by contactless card although it is expected that cash will need to be taken also. Toilets are available – the Ladies currently has a ‘one in, one out’ rule. The Gents will have notices to indicate limit on numbers entering and social distancing. Toilets will be cleaned after every match.
The serving of hot drinks only and chocolate bars will be available at the normal external window servery. Customers will be expected to handle their own change and charges will be made at multiples of £1.
The club room and bar will be open for use by supporters before and during the match, and will be laid out with tables and chairs socially distanced. Numbers will be limited to suit the layout and seating. The room will be available for players after the match for drinks only. No food will be available after the match. A foot operated hand sanitiser will be positioned outside the entrance door. Tables will be placed in front of the bar to restrict customers getting to close to the counter and staff will wear face coverings. There is a separate toilet for the club room and can be used on a ‘one in, one out’ basis, and queuing will be marked for socially distancing. Cleaning in the Club Room, corridor, toilet and kitchen will be after every match or use of the rooms.
