Club Policy on Dogs

Dogs are allowed at Harrogate Rugby Club, but must be kept on a lead and under control at all times.

They must never be taken onto the playing surfaces or training areas.

Dog excrement can present a real health hazard and any mess must be cleared up and disposed of properly. Please take care if using a telescopic lead, as this can cause a trip hazard and you may not be aware what your dog is doing several metres away from you!

Dogs are allowed in the club house, on a lead, and we ask that you take particular care and keep them away from food preparation and serving areas at all times.

The club reserves the right to ask that a dog be removed from the grounds or clubhouse at any time, should it be deemed appropriate.

Managers and coaches must make sure that any visiting teams are aware of this policy.
