Entain announces closure of CrayfordBy Paul Brown {Racing Post} 3:00pm 20 NOV 2024
The news was revealed by Entain UK communications director Simon Clare. He said: "We are saddened to announce the intended closure of the Crayford greyhound track.
"We have been exploring various avenues to avoid this decision for some time but, ultimately, it is no longer viable for us to continue operating the site.
"The dwindling support for the venue has led to insufficient trainer interest/ to fulfil our schedules, fewer competitive racedays and, therefore, lower attendance which has sadly driven our decision to close.
"Ladbrokes have a long history in greyhound racing, helping to build and open the Crayford venue in 1986, so the decision has not been taken lightly./
"Impacted colleagues have been informed of our intention to close the track and we will shortly commence individual consultations with colleagues to discuss the support/options available to them.
"We will/ also continue to/ support all trainers impacted by the disruption and hope that many of them will continue to race their dogs at other UK greyhound tracks.
"We remain committed to the highest levels of animal welfare. As such, every affected greyhound will be cared for through an enhanced investment and rehoming strategy.
"We are looking to expand our infrastructure to rehome dogs, develop new rehoming partnerships in the UK, the US and Canada and support trainer and greyhound transition to other tracks in the UK. |
