Synthetic Rugby Pitch Consultants

As specialist synthetic rugby pitch consultants, we have helped many schools, clubs and local groups in the UK with installing brand new artificial grass sporting facilities for training and competitive use.

The turf used is a 3G synthetic carpet which is specially designed to mimic the characteristics of natural grass for use with both football and rugby pitches and also meets RFU and SAPCA accreditations.

This specification is made of advanced synthetic grass fibres and has both sand and rubber infill within the carpet to enhance the playability of the rugby surface.

A lot of schools and sports clubs choose this surface type because it’s durable, suitable for all weather conditions, and requires a lot less maintenance than natural grass without getting flooded or muddy.

Although it’s becoming increasingly popular to have a synthetic surface installed, many schools and sports clubs near me, find it difficult to know where to start on the design and construction.

This is where synthetic rugby pitch consultants can give guidance throughout the whole project as well as find funding and financial help.

Our services begin with carrying out a site survey to assess factors such as drainage, topography, soil conditions and any risks which might be identified.

Work can then start on creating a specification and design for your new facility which meets the requirements of the client and fits within the available space within the sports facility.

Planning permission will need to be obtained if your project results in a change to the use of the land, we can also assist you in applying for this to make the process as simple as possible.

What is a Rugby Pitch?

A rugby pitch is a sports facility which is installed especially for rugby.

A synthetic sports pitch is often used for the installation of sports pitches; this offers similar playing characteristics to natural grass, without a large amount of maintenance.

Artificial pitches offer permeable properties meaning that the rainwater can drain through easily. This means the surfacing will not become waterlogged or flooded in wet weather conditions.
