The city of Bocholt has announced that the municipal pitches are closed due to the weather.Sport: Closure of all grass sports pitches in Bocholt extended up to and including Tuesday
Due to the continuing bad weather conditions, all grass sports pitches in the city area will not be playable on Monday, 11 December 2023 and Tuesday, 12 December 2023 and will therefore be closed.
The ESB's municipal sports pitch inspection team came to this decision after checking the condition of the pitches on Monday morning. "The pitches can no longer absorb water due to the rainfall of the last few days. Using them would cause massive damage to the pitches," said the ESB.
The artificial turf and grass pitches are not affected by the closure.
