Sports pitches

We operate a seasonal sports programme with football, rugby and lacrosse in winter and cricket, softball and touch rugby during the summer.

Informal play areas

We consider informal games as casual ‘jumpers for goalposts’ type activities. Company sports days and organised club training sessions are not considered informal. These activities always require permission and must be pre-booked.

For football and rugby please complete a pitch enquiry form.  Our winter sports season runs 7 September to 30 March.

Our summer sports and company event season resumes April 2025 with bookings from early 2025.  There is no suitable, safe space for organised softball, rounders or company sports days during our winter sports season – September to March.

Looking after our pitches

You may see pitches that are not being used but this does not mean they are free to play on. We regularly rest and carry out maintenance work on the sports pitches to ensure their high quality throughout the year.

As a charity it costs in excess of £250,000 per year for the upkeep of the sports pitches in The Regent’s Park and those using the facilities are asked to contribute to their upkeep by booking.

We do not make a profit from the charges so we ask you respect our policy of keeping off the sports pitches if you do not have a booking.
