Sports Fields Development Guidance

Are you making the sports field surface decision for your organisation?

For many New Zealand councils, schools and sports clubs making the decision to invest in a sports field is a complicated balancing process, with many factors to be considered. For a start the amount money to be spent upfront and the associated on-going running costs are just a few. Then there are the myriad options available when it comes to choose of turf.

For example, when is it best to use artificial turf or sand-based grass fields or just keep the existing soil-based grass fields?

Sport NZ and Jacobs have developed a guidance document that will assist sports field providers with planning, constructing and maintaining their fields.
