Parking and travel arrangements

If you haven't visited Letchworth RFC before, the ground is behind the North Hertfordshire Leisure Centre on the B656 (formerly the A505) between Baldock and Letchworth.

Note that the road numbers have recently changed following the opening of the Baldock by-pass.

If travelling from the east it is quicker to exit the A505 before you get to Letchworth and go through Baldock than follow the by-pass.

If you are using the A1 then leave at Junction 9, and follow the signs for the B656 and the leisure centre.

Parking at the ground will limited, so we have arranged for you to be able to use the car park of the Hertfordshire Careers Service, situated on the opposite side of the B656 from the Leisure Centre (marked with a "P" on the map above).

Registration will be from 9.30 -10.15. If possible you are encouraged to submit team lists by email (johnbirch@ntlworld.com) before day in order to speed arrangements. A registration form can be downloaded by clicking here.

If you are travelling from a significant distance, and your first game is not until 11.30 or later, then you may delay your arrival until 45 minutes before your first game. However, you must still telephone or text 07767 615274 between 9.30 and 10.15 to confirm that you are on your way.

Changing rooms will be open and available, but there will obviously not be enough rooms for all teams to change at the same time! Teams should either arrive ready to play, or give themselves plenty of time to change. Showers will also be available on the same basis.

Changing rooms will be shared and no clothing or equipment should be left unattended in any changing room - Letchworth GC RFC will not be responsble for any losses resulting from unattended belongings.

The changing room and shower areas will be open only to players and female coaching staff throughout the day.
