    Facility and Security Induction

    The Stadium is not permanently staffed and access outside of normal fixtures/representative training is provided via an honour system based on access to a stadium key contained in a key safe secured next to the Office door.  

    All persons booking the stadium must attend a Facility and Security Induction at the Stadium provided by an official of the Association before any bookings can be accepted.   Current members of the Association who have demonstrated their knowledge and understanding of the facility and lock up procedures may be deemed as having completed the Facility and Security Induction.

    The induction involves a 10 – 15 minute explanatory briefing on how to access the stadium; the use of various stadium equipment (lights/fans, etc) and the correct procedures to ensure the stadium is properly secured at the end of the booking.  

    Persons booking the stadium who fail to use the stadium correctly or who leave it insecure at the completion of their booking will be required to undergo another induction.  Repeated breaches of security may result in refusal to accept future bookings.
