"We have had to turn a lot of teams away."
The lights will be installed in about seven weeks according to Mrs Smith who admits the wait is a bit long when the season is already under way.
"If we had known it would take so long we would have applied earlier."
A number of improvements have been made to the park over recent years, including the fixing of the grandstand ready for this rugby season.
"The grandstand is ready to go which is really good. As a sports club we are getting there slowly."
Mrs Smith hopes in the future the club will be able to upgrade the lights at the park to playing quality so they can start hosting games.
