Dogs

There are not dogs permitted on Crown Park for the duration of the McCartney Invitational Tournament. Local council bylaws are in place that mean dogs are not permitted on Crown Park. Compliance Officers will be in attendance to ensure safety and hygiene standards are met. If your team, parents, supporters, or anyone connected with your club bring dogs onto Crown Park you can expect future participation to be limited.
