Towcestrians Sports Club is based in Towcester Northants.
The club is a non-profit making club which offers excellent multi-sports Facilities for Rugby, Cricket, Tennis, Hockey, Netball The facility manages both competitive and recreational sports and encourages involvement from all age groups and sectors of the community.
For several years the Club had been looking to raise funds for the development of a new Hockey facility in form of a full-size synthetic pitch.
From early 2018 Playrite had been involved in preliminary discussions relating to the synthetic surface and this process continued until spring 2020 when the club was able to finance the scheme.
Working closely with the Club and together with the appointed contractor ( Prestige Civils and Sports Ltd, Towcester) Playrite’s Tournament EL Tufted Synthetic Grass was chosen for the surface.
Tournament EL is a UK manufactured high-performance, Durable, low maintenance, synthetic surface that conforms to FIH standards for Hockey as well as being highly suited to Multi-sports.
This was very important to the club because as well as being used for competitive hockey the surface was excellent for football use and inlaid lines were provided for both sports accordingly.
Installation of the pitch over an area of 7000 square meters was undertaken during the summer of 2020 and this fantastic new facility is now being used for both competitive hockey and football during all times of day and evenings by people of all ages and abilities.
