    Hey, how much is it to book any soccer astro turf pitch beside the student res for lets say 90 minutes or so.

    I see that half the times the pitches are empty, so are there any strict regulations on time keeping? And any chance of it being free? And do you get in trouble if you use them without paying? And is there any dude that goes around the pitches checking if you payed, like the guy in the library that tells you to stfu?

    Thanks

    Not entirely sure, but I think it's €25 during the day, for an hour or something.

    Dunno about the guy telling you to gtfo though.

    No idea about the prices. But we've used them many a times without paying. As long as ya go during the day when there's not much business I'd say ya'll be grand. Never seen anyone walking around kicking people off either.

    No idea how much it costs.

    For students the price is €25 euro for an hour before 6pm and €40 after. You dont have much chance of a pitch being free (as in available) after 7 as they are nearly all block booked.
    During the day they can lock quite a few pitches so people wont be able to play for free.
    They do check the pitches now and then and they will come out and ask if you paid but you will probably get away with it about 70% of the time
    You wont get in any great trouble but i think it pisses off the staff abit.
    If you dont pay then the lights on your pitch wont be turned on so this is a problem late at night or during the winter.

    Go down and see if there are any open before paying. As mentioned, it's €25 for an hour, though I was playing on it the other day and we were on it over an hour easily

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Ive went down many a time during the day and played games without anone asking any questions.
    Basicially if ya get the pitches in ya go.

    I've never seen anyone ask any questions, but in the unlikely event of such. I'd pretend to have an awful stutter, get freaked out and run away claiming you saw an alian !

    That's coz you're one of the lads, like. They'd never have the balls to quiz one of the lads, like.
