In the UK, cricket season typically begins in mid April and runs until September. This is the optimum period for the sport to be played outdoors, when the weather is generally the most favourable and days are long and light. When the outdoor season ends, the sport can continue to be played indoors thanks to modern facilities. Competitive play is less common indoors, but the settings are regularly used for training so that players don’t have to face a long break from their sport.
Cricket covers and domes mean playing spaces can be enclosed, keeping them covered against the elements so that the weather won’t stop play or training. Both solutions also allow pitches to be lit and heated so they can be used in darker and colder months. This not only means they can be used more often; it also protects surfaces from wear and tear so they don’t require as much maintenance.
The most important thing with cricket facilities is to ensure that the roof is the right height to allow practice and play, otherwise it could easily be struck by the ball, potentially resulting in costly repairs. Covers and domes provide a great solution in this regard and can be built at a suitable height. The second option can even be telescopic so the roof can be opened or closed on request and you don’t need to keep the pitch covered all year round.
