Bridgnorth Cricket Club Travellers Eviction

We were instructed by Bridgnorth Cricket Club to deal with an unauthorised travellers encampment on their cricket ground. Our team handled the eviction calmly and in an ordered way, kept the club fully updated, and returned the ground to them on the agreed Monday night with minimal damage.

Challenge

Bridgnorth Cricket Club faced an urgent travellers encampment on their cricket ground, risking disruption to matches, potential damage to the pitch, and concern among members. They needed the ground cleared by a specific deadline, with clear communication throughout and as little damage as possible.

Solution

We deployed our enforcement team to manage the encampment, working in a calm and ordered way while keeping the club fully up to speed on every development. By following an agreed timetable, we ensured the ground was handed back on the Monday night (11th) as committed, with only minimal damage.

Issue

Bridgnorth Cricket Club had a travellers encampment on their cricket ground, creating immediate pressure to protect the pitch, resume normal use, and reassure players and members.​
They also needed certainty around timing, with a clear commitment that the ground would be returned to them quickly so fixtures could continue with minimal disruption.​

Approach

We agreed a clear plan and timescale with the club, including a commitment to have the ground back in their control by Monday night (11th).​
Our enforcement team attended site, dealt with the situation in a calm and ordered way, and kept the club’s representative fully informed of developments so they always knew what was happening and when.​

Resolution

Risk

The unauthorised encampment risked damage to the playing surface and facilities, potential cancellation of matches, and concerns among members and the local community if the situation dragged on. There was also a risk of escalation or confrontation if the removal was not handled professionally and in a controlled, methodical way.

Response

We addressed compliance gaps with a tailored solution, aligning data practices with legal requirements across regions, and provided legal advice, operational updates, and staff training to ensure adherence.

Outcome

The encampment was removed and Bridgnorth Cricket Club regained full use of their ground on the promised Monday night (11th), with only minimal damage reported.​ The club thanked us for our assistance and described our representatives as a credit to the business.
