Make free football pitches in England for people to use
Rejected

What the petition asks
Make free football pictures around the Uk with 11 aside goals
So young people have a way to excise and have fun at the same time. It will also give them a way to stay out of trouble.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
The Government is not responsible for local sports facilities, including football pitches. This is a matter for individual local authorities and pitch owners, not the Government or House of Commons.
You could contact your local authority urging them to increase provision of free football pitches. You can find details of your local authority here: https://www.gov.uk/find-local-council
