Synthetic sports surface manufacturer, TigerTurf have supplied their ER65R product for the construction of a joint purpose pitch at a specialist sports college in Tyne & Wear.
The installation is part of a considerable investment by Houghton Kepier Sports College to improve the sports facilities available to both the school and the wider community, with the third generation TigerTurf sports surface said to be the 'jewel in the crown'.
The ER65R surface was developed primarily as a Rugby pitch but has since gained FA accreditation, making it an excellent football facility as well.
It is constructed from long non-abrasive fibres which are infilled with recycled rubber to replicate natural soil and provide initial comfort. An underlay also provides firmness and impact absorption.
TigerTurf teamed up with contracting partners Hellens Sport in a project that has helped deliver leadership programmes for youngsters along with sports festivals and competitions for all age ranges, with a particular focus on increasing the participation and elite performance of girls and women in football and rugby.
Craig Langley, Houghton Kepier’s director of sport said: "The new pitch has had a genuine impact on what we are able to offer our school and community at Houghton Kepier Sports College.
"We have seen a massive increase in community engagement from local football and rugby clubs, the FA, the RFU, Sunderland Sports Federation and local schools”.
