GOOD luck to Horwich Hockey Club in trying to keep a playable pitch in the town.
MP Chris Green lent his support to the club’s campaign by training with them and was impressed by their spirit and determination.
Club members are concerned that Horwich will be left without a pitch if plans go ahead to convert the Astroturf pitch at Horwich Leisure Centre to a new 3G one which is unsuitable.
Let’s hope the Council listen to them. Hockey has a long and successful history here and it would be wrong if current and future players were denied a home.
