Some weeks after the official opening of the £2.8-million facility by North Lincolnshire Council, the authority has submitted a planning application to increase the height of existing hockey pitch fencing, using netting up to 6m behind the goals and 5m at the sides.
This is described as multi-mesh rebound fencing with polypropylene netting above.
