We would like to bring to your attention an important policy that is in place for the well-being of all our players and participants.

No Pets Allowed at Tullow Rugby Grounds

We understand the love and companionship that pets bring, but for the safety and effectiveness of our training sessions, we must enforce a strict no-pets policy. This decision is rooted in several considerations that prioritize the welfare of our players and ensure a conducive environment for focused training:

Hygiene and Cleanliness: Rugby pitches demand a high level of cleanliness and hygiene to reduce the risk of injuries and ensure a healthy training environment. Allowing pets on the grounds increases the likelihood of waste and allergens, which can pose health risks to our players.

Player Safety: Rugby training involves dynamic drills, physical contact, and high-intensity exercises. Having pets on the training grounds introduces an unpredictable element that could compromise the safety of both players and animals.

Respect for Others: Not all individuals are comfortable around animals, and some may have allergies or fears that could impact their participation. By maintaining a pet-free environment, we aim to create an inclusive space where everyone feels comfortable and supported.

We kindly request all members and visitors to adhere to this policy and refrain from bringing pets onto the rugby training grounds. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in maintaining a safe and productive environment for our players and coaching staff.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this policy, please feel free to reach out to any member of the committee. Your cooperation is crucial in upholding the standards of our training facilities and ensuring a successful and enjoyable rugby season for all.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
