In fact, the service is getting worse by the week.
This is a complete and utter kick in the teeth to the people who work hard week in-week out to get people continuing to play sport.

If it wasn't for our club paying the pitch fees, we would have to disband because of the very high hike in fees. Is as if you do not sports to be played on park grounds?

You will kill grass roots sport in the City. So much for the legacy of the Olympics!! You should be ashamed! Our softball teams consist of many students and people on low incomes. Half of the appeal of Softball is it's accessibility to all, regardless of wealth. By upping the cost of pitch fees you will be excluding those who enjoy the sport but who cannot afford the excessive hikes in pitch fees. You talk of the fitness of the nation, obesity and encouraging team spirit in youngsters and then you rocket the price of Council pitches. Shameful!

Sport is the one place where people of all backgrounds can come together and be healthy and active. Increasing pitch fees will only turn people away and deter those that ars already struggling with the recession and inflation in day-to-day living. Please protect what I feel is one of Cardiff's most beautiful asset.

Make the money another way council pen pushers. Stop spending on tea and biscuits for your committee meetings. Parks sport is dying and you do this. Subs are the only income for many parks teams, rinsing them via unjustified pitch charges will slowly strangle many clubs. If the pitches and facilities were worth the money, maybe your point of view could be seen. GREEDY CASH GRABBING, thats what it is. Do your jobs, think and make cuts or rises in areas where its justified. You want young blokes off the streets ?, parks sport is where they can go. Disgraceful, dismissive attitude toward all them blokes out there who sacrifice time and effort to keep a team going week to week.

Whilst a small rise,in line with inflation and cost saving is understandable,such huge hikes,running near 150% increase for the softball community,of which I am a member,is intolerable and cannot be condoned.
With an increasingly obese and sedentary population,public sports endeavours should receive full support from council authorities,and not choose to see sporting participants as a cash cow to be milked for small change. I implore the council to reconsider this ill-conceived endeavour.
