Specialist Services for Winter Sports Pitches

Given
the development of professional football and rugby over recent years,
it is no surprise that winter sports pitch construction / refurbishment
has become one of the company's core areas of work.
The provision of winter sports pitches varies widely across the country
- so in order to ensure the most effective construction / drainage system,
it is important to understand the type of construction required for each
level of play.
Professional Sportsturf Design (NW) Ltd. have been involved in assessing
numerous sites over the last 20 years for drainage or reconstruction.
These include local authority recreation grounds, school playing fields,
stadium pitches and professional training grounds and academies.

To
date, the company has been involved in over 30 new or reconstructed stadium
pitches, 11 training grounds or academies for professional football clubs
and numerous upgrades for local authority recreation grounds. Clients
range from those at the very top of the premier league to local village
football and rugby clubs. Many of these pitches are jointly used for football,
rugby and (at local level) cricket.
Services provided for winter sports pitches include:
- The initial site audit
- Provision of tender documents to include
specification
- Assessment and approval of materials for
use
- Site inspection during the works
Once the site has been constructed, PSD are then actively
involved in providing an ongoing maintenance programme, monitoring its
implementation and assessing its success.

PSD
has been involved in the construction and development of pitches of all
standards - not only in the UK, but also abroad in warm season countries
including Portugal and Saudi Arabia and cold season countries such as
Latvia and Russia.
PSD are recognised as one of the leading companies
involved in specifying winter sport construction systems. Specifically,
basic drainage schemes, pitch stabilisation with Fibresand or Desso Grassmaster
and electric, warm water-based / air-based undersoil heating and air evacuation
systems.
