Dear Sir/Madam, I am very much unhappy living in my home as I am having problem with the kids/teenagers who actually come as a group to play football just outside my door. As I recently moved to my new home, I was happily living until I saw these kids/teenagers come as a group to play football just outside my home. I requested them onece not to play football outside my home,because it may damage my property.

Heynes Road is a v.narrow road, and these kids/teenagers use my front boundary wall as their target and they heavily hit the ball on it, when they play,the ball goes anywhere,it hits my door, window and they access my front garden to take the ball bac. Winter season started, there was a huge silent. Now they have started playing football already though the climate is not getting better. I felt the need to write to you. Because it is extremely annoying and irritating.

I kindly request Council to send a warning letters to all parents who live in this surrounding area to raise the awarness about the problem the residents having in this area due to kids/teenagers kicking football in the street.

I deeply worried about this because, on 5th of January, when I came from shopping around 3.30pm, I found some body thrown a Cola bottle to my porch window, and it has been damaged! I spent £200 to repair it! It is likely that the teenagers dont really understand that their fun is causing the residents' property being damaged!
