This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about recreational grounds are a matter for individual local authorities and other sports facilities, not the Government or House of Commons. As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.

If the football pitches in your area are maintained by your local authority you could raise this issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them: www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors
