SUHUM TISEN SERIES: The Chairman of the Suhum Football Association has expressed deep concern over the rapid deterioration of the Suhum Roman Park, describing the situation as alarming and unsustainable for football development in the area. According to the Chairman, the once vibrant and playable pitch is now in a deplorable state, worsening by the day due to a combination of neglect, poor maintenance structures, and overuse. He emphasized that the current condition of the pitch poses a serious threat to local football activities, player safety, and the overall growth of the sport in Suhum. He outlined several key factors contributing to the decline of the facility. These include the lack of a proper maintenance plan, inadequate drainage systems leading to waterlogging during rains, and continuous usage of the pitch without recovery periods. Additionally, he pointed out that the absence of dedicated personnel and logistics for pitch management has further accelerated its deterioration. The Chairman also noted that the Municipal Assembly, which is expected to oversee the upkeep of the facility, appears overwhelmed and unable to effectively manage the park. He stressed that without urgent intervention, the pitch may soon become completely unfit for any organized football activity. He is therefore calling on key stakeholders—including the Municipal Assembly, corporate bodies, football administrators, and community leaders—to come together and find a lasting solution. Suggested measures include rehabilitation of the pitch, installation of proper drainage systems, controlled usage schedules, and the establishment of a dedicated maintenance team. “The Suhum Roman Park is a vital asset to our football community. If we fail to act now, we risk losing a key platform for nurturing young talents,” he stated. The Suhum Football Association remains hopeful that swift action will be taken to restore the pitch to a playable standard and secure the future of football in the municipality. #SuhumTesen #SuhumSports #mefisuhum #Shvibe - @mefisuhum
