Guess What? These horrible windy, rainy, wintery conditions are set to last for the coming months, as they always do. If you are playing \/ training for various sports outside this is not an exciting concept. This is particularly true for football and rugby clubs.<\/p>\n<p>Being a parent to boys who played grassroots football, I know one of the worst experiences is standing in an unsheltered field during winter. Your beautiful shoes slowly but surely sink in the bog-like mud. The rain feels like it is slicing your face. The cold wind slowly bites into to your toes and fingers.<\/p>\n<p>If you are involved in football from coaching, playing or even a parent of a player, you will know of the horror that is winter. Standing in that boggy field battling all that Mother Nature can throw at you. You wish for somewhere that is warm, sheltered and clean. Somewhere maybe like a sports hall<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/ntc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/08\/Sports-Hall-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-189\" src=\"http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/ntc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/08\/Sports-Hall-1-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Sports Hall\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/ntc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/08\/Sports-Hall-1-300x224.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/ntc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/08\/Sports-Hall-1-1024x764.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-189\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our sports hall from the viewing gallery<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Well coincidently, at NTC we have just such a place.
