FIFA Pitch Specifications

In simple terms, the PRO standard pitch is suitable for elite professional football...Levels 1 to 6, which includes the National/NLN/NLS.

This PRO standard pitch demands higher playing standards & is not really suitable for Community use.

The standard pitch specification, for use at Level 7 & below is more suitable for a heavy Community useage.

That said, the ground-grading regulations spell out the requirements.

That takes me back to my point about a Club's aspirations.

Do you want to be an elite professional football club, or do you want to be a recreational, community football club?

IMO, you cannot be both!

Just my thoughts!

Edit:

I would suggest that it could be very useful for the directors of NTFC CIC to invite S & C Slatter to give them a presentation on artificial grass pitches.
