LAID ONTO EXISTING:
x Sand envelope System®

Dates Resurfaced – August 2010 Originally Built – 1996
Specialist Builder South Wales Sports Ground Contractors Ltd
Refurbishment Cost £85,000 + VAT
Points of Interest The original construction was installed in 1996. The project in 2010 replaced
the old VHAF®
NottsSward sand filled surface with a replacement high quality
multipurpose synthetic grass.
The existing Sand Envelope System®
and dynamic base construction has
proven to last the life of 2 carpets at sites throughout the UK providing
customers with a system that can be reused rather than replaced and reducing
the costs of refurbishment in comparison to other performance layers and
shock-pads.

Points of interest The project was part of the Barclays Spaces for Sport programme in
association with the Football Foundation, Portsmouth Football Club and
Portsmouth City Council. The council required a design that would be robust
enough to last in an open access /un-supervised environment but that would
meet football performance. The VHAF®
NottsSward®
surface had been trialled
at another smaller site in Portsmouth and had stood up to the wear and
vandalism, and therefore, was the preferred surface here.
