Written by the Football Licensing Authority, the 'Guide to Safety at Sports Grounds - Fifth Edition' provides detailed guidance to ground management design in respect to increasing safety at sports grounds and stadiums. Written in reference to both management and design of grounds, it is of great use to technical specialists, such as architects and engineers, as well as all relevant authorities who oversee safety in sports grounds and assess how many spectators can be safely accommodated within a sports ground.

This publication provides guidance on measures intended to improve safety at existing grounds, in terms of their design and safety management. Greater emphasis is given to the responsibility of management to undertake its own risk assessments and that the safety of spectators with disabilities should not be considered in isolation of all other spectators is also indicated.
