Who this task will support
Batter Up!
Portsmouth's first outdoor batting cages.

We'll return to Batter Up batting cages to complete assembly of a new batting cage to replace one that was blown down by storm Amy.

After a bit of trial and error on the last session, we've now got the blueprint for success and we'll need 3-4 strong (ideally tall) volunteers to help make this one happen. You must also be capable of not losing the metal drill bits in the grass every five minutes :-D

Come help out, and please note that this will be rescheduled in case of heavy wind or rain. There will definitely be a chance to hit some balls too if you want to practise your swing.


How are you getting there?
