Seacroft residents disgusted after grass at Parklands Fields destroyed by vehicle

Shocking pictures supplied to the Yorkshire Evening Post show significant damage to the fields, possibly from a car or large quad bike.

The pictures were posted on a local community forum and caused outrage among residents who have spent months tending to the park and ensuring it is kept in a good condition.

One resident told the YEP: "A group of residents have been clearing litter and paths, replanting tree's looking at paths to be put in and benches trying to improve for all.

"But we have a small group of people that believe it's only for them."

Another commented on the post: "Such a mess with motorbike and quad tracks all over the pitches.

"So sad."

The latest crime spate comes just three months after local community club Whinmoor Warriors were left devastated when their pitch was ripped up by quad bikers and a cars trespassing on their field.

Club coach David Mann, 32, discovered the scene in the second week of November.

David, speaking to the Yorkshire Evening Post at the time, said: "From what we gather they have entered the pitch on Saturday night.

"They have completely ripped the pitch to shreds.

"It is devastating.

"We have had cars make a few tracks before but this time it is fully ripped up.

"It is going to take a lot of work for us to get going again."

The club have over 100 children playing for their teams, but the vandalism left the pitch in ruin.
