Junior groups (aged 17 and under) will be given priority at the earlier times. At all times PKC, LAL and UHI Perth will seek to maximise the utilisation of all the available sports halls. As a result, we are not asking you to identify a preferred venue, and you may be allocated a slot in any of the venues listed that can accommodate your activity.
Where bookings cannot be separated via the criteria above, we will refer to the previous seasons allocation to reduce disruption to existing users and established routines.
We will make every effort to accommodate requests as closely as possible, however given the anticipated high demand it is inevitable that in order to accommodate as many clubs / groups as possible that we will require flexibility from everyone in terms of their start and finish times and in some cases clubs/groups may be offered an alternative day. Some groups may be asked to utilise different venues throughout the course of their booking.
We hope that you are assured of our intention to work collaboratively to ensure that available resources are distributed fairly and reasonably and that we can rely on your support through this process.
