Over 9,000m2 of Playrite’s multi-sport system Match-Winner with Match Pad shockpad was installed in partnership with local sports surfaces supplier Laydex. The total surface measured 137m x 70m on which a whole host of sporting activities can take place simultaneously. In a single session, a full size hockey/football pitch, plus 4 mini-pitches (all badminton court sized) can be used.
After visiting the installation, Playrite director Chris Pickles commented “The Match-Winner system was the ideal solution for Meadowbank Sports Arena as their wide range of sports could be encompassed on the Playrite system. In one hour we watched soccer, cricket, lacrosse and tennis being taught in a single PE lesson”.
