Static net systems depreciating immediately

Managing Director @ Radford EZY Net? | Ex-England & Worcestershire Cricketer
At Radford Ezy Net Limited, our Netting Systems take into account the following:
· We do not believe nets should be in permanent situ, thereby occupying space that potentially could be utilized for other activities/sport, or may be aesthetically NON pleasing on the eye
· We understand the issues of vandalism (due to nets being left out) and wear caused by the elements and potential vermin (rabbit and fox holes)
· We understand the issues faced around maintaining nets (especially on grass areas) - this involves strimming, cutting, rolling and covering of the net area - a real pain for grounds men especially with “caged” systems
· We believe cricket net areas should and can be used for other activities, certainly on artificial facilities as the nets are retractable/demountable – i.e. warm-up area, fielding drills etc. - this cannot be accommodated in a "cage" system
· We understand the issues spinners face when attempting to give "flight" to a cricket ball – “cage” systems do not allow this, balls end up being stuck in/on the roof net
· We understand the "health & safety" issues faced when balls struck by the batsman will ricochet off the many poles/metal sections (holding up the “caged” system) into the bowlers path causing injury
· We understand the issues of wicket-keepers not being able to get into the nets due to the restriction on space behind the stumps in a “ caged” facility - we overcome this as our back net can be "set aside/peeled off" due to large Velcro attachments that connect the side nets to the back nets
