If you wish to make a booking, or enquire about any cancellations, either apply online, print out and return an application form (95KB) 
, or contact the Parks Service on 0845 129 77 77 or 01298 28400 ext 2204.
If you are not already in receipt of Pavilion keys, they can be collected from the Parks Office. There is a key deposit charge of £10 per club, which will be payable on receipt of keys. Please contact the Office to arrange a mutually convenient date for collecting keys.
A cancellation fee subject to an administration charge of 10% of the full fee, plus the cost of any matches already played, will be enforced throughout the 2010/11 season.
Completed applications for pitch reservations should normally be returned to the Lettings Office no later than the end of June following the completion of the previous season.
Pitches will be allocated by early August with priority shown to existing users, teams based locally to the pitch, and with members from the High Peak.
The Council aims to have the pitches ready for use by the end of August unless other arrangements have been made. This includes renovating worn areas in the closed season, erecting goal posts and burning in the pitch markings. We also undertake to cut the grass and other routine maintenance to ensure the pitch is kept in good order through out the season.
Clubs are expected to supply corner flags, nets and white line the pitch through out the season.

Clubs will be charged for pitch hire in two equal instalments at the end of September and the end of December of each playing season unless other arrangements are made with our Accounts Section.
Casual bookings for a pitch will be considered if they do not interfere with existing users. The charge would be £35 for a Group 1 football pitch and £25 for a Group 2 pitch.
There may be times when weather conditions render a pitch unplayable. In such circumstances it would normally be left to the referee to decide whether a game can go ahead although if bad weather is forecast we would expect the home team to be proactive in monitoring the condition of the playing surface before the day of a game.
Wilful damage caused by players to HPBC property, e.g. smashing lights, damaging shower heads, tearing down official notices and writing graffiti on walls and doors, or any other wilful damage could result in the pitch allocation agreement being withdrawn and no financial refund made.
It is the responsibility of the last ‘home’ team to ensure that the pavilion (if present) is clean and locked and that the football pitch is cleared of all litter etc. Failure to ensure this could result in the pitch allocation agreement being withdrawn and no financial refund made.
