Sports facility leases consultation

Torfaen County Borough Council recognises that it has a key role to play in supporting social interaction and physical activity through the provision of a diverse range of community buildings, recreation, sport and community facilities, working in collaboration with local clubs, associations, organisations and groups to meet the needs and interests of local citizens.

Many of the arrangements made for the leasing of sporting facilities and community halls in Torfaen are historical. Over time this has resulted in different leasing arrangements and questions about consistency, equality and value-for-money in the use of council-owned assets.

Sporting clubs who require sole use of Torfaen land for sporting activities under a lease or licence agreement, should land become available are required to submit a request to the Council to be added to the Sports Facility Waiting List. Further details of the procedure can be found in the Policy below:
