Points of Interest:
• A previously under used grassed playing field at the School due to a
poorly drained field and poor soil make up. Notts Sport carried out an
initial feasibility study, gained planning consent and designed a new multi-
use games area solely for the pupils use at Newker Primary School.
Quote:
‘Working with Notts Sport to develop our MUGA greatly reduced the pressure
and workload on school during the design, planning and construction phases of
the project. They took responsibility for the initial survey of the site, produced
plans and impressions of the pitch, managed the planning application with
the Local Authority, ran the tendering process on our behalf and liaised with
the successful contractors during the building of the facility. At the end of the
project, Notts Sport’s quality control standards were impressive with great
attention to detail being shown. We are delighted with the finished pitch which
has greatly enhanced our sports facilities.’
