Where multiple pitches are to be laid out in close proximity there is a requirement for a space of three metres between the outside lines of the run-off areas. This is for both safety and to accommodate spectators. There is no requirement for additional space between in-goal areas other than to accommodate spectators and it is therefore discretionary.
