Ban 3G rubber crumb on new artificial pitches and display health info notices

Summary

We call on the Government to ban the use of rubber crumb infill on all new 3G artificial football pitches, and to require clear health information notices to be displayed at existing 3G pitches that use rubber crumb infill. Also to require the removal of rubber crumb from all existing 3G pitches. There is ongoing, well-documented scientific concern about potential health risks associated with exposure to the chemicals found in the rubber crumb infill. We believe the Government should take the precautionary principle approach to protect children and other users of 3G pitches, particularly in schools and educational settings, including academies, by using alternative infills in future artificial pitch installations. Our children can then enjoy their football without the health risks.
