Rejected petition Petition to put a basketball court/hoop up in Males park

We would like a 9 1/2 foot tall basketball hoop/court in Males Park, West Cross, Swansea.

More details

I think it will be beneficial for the people in the community and bring opportunity for people to get fit and learn how to play. It will be helpful for people who play in teams to help them practice in these strange times.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Decisions about the provision of local amenities such as basketball courts are a matter for individual local authorities, not the UK Government or House of Commons.

You could raise this issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them: https://www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

You can also contact your local council directly. Find out how to contact your council here: https://www.swansea.gov.uk/contactus
