Fieldform project
Building a synthetic turf pitch on a restricted-access site
This Fieldform project combined a site-specific perimeter solution, below-ground drainage and base works, and a defined synthetic turf system.

Project constraints
Restricted access and a no-dig fencing requirement
Access to the site was restricted. The project also required a no-dig perimeter fence, which was secured using an iron ring beam.
The build also included drainage crates, a dynamic stone layer, integral rebound boards and the selected synthetic turf system.
- Site access
- Restricted access
- Fencing system
- No-dig fencing secured using an iron ring beam, with integral rebound boards
- Below the surface
- A dynamic stone layer constructed over drainage crates
- Playing surface
- Polytan LigaTurf Motion Pro over a tile-format shockpad
Below the surface
A dynamic stone layer constructed over drainage crates
Drainage crates formed part of the supporting works, with a dynamic stone layer constructed above them.
Together, these elements formed the build-up below the playing surface.
Pitch and perimeter
Polytan surface, tile shockpad and integral rebound boards
The playing surface was Polytan LigaTurf Motion Pro, laid over a tile-format shockpad. Integral rebound boards were built into the fencing system.
Together, the surface, shockpad and perimeter elements completed the small-sided pitch.
Common questions
Understanding the pitch build-up
What construction elements were used below the playing surface?
