IRB Type 22 Synthetic Rugby Pitch

An IRB Type 22 synthetic rugby pitch can be installed to meet IRB requirements for a professional quality playing surface. We provide specialist services to install and test artificial grass surfaces to ensure they are up to the correct standards. When building a new turf pitch for use with rugby, the latest technology of synthetic carpet will be used to give the best playing qualities. These rugby pitches are installed at training grounds, sports clubs and schools as a more durable alternative to natural grass pitches. To learn about the installations we carry out please click here http://www.artificialrugbypitches.com/installations/ The specification that we use is a 3G synthetic turf surface which is infilled with sand and rubber to provide natural and comfortable performance capabilities.

IRB Rugby Field Testing Near Me

In order to check that the synthetic turf surface nearby you and in surrounding areas, meets the right requirements, IRB rugby field testing needs to be carried out. These consist of a number of performance and safety checks which determine the quality of the finished surface. Testing is done to check for durability, this ensures that the sports pitch provides playing qualities which are suited to the sport and mimic those of a natural grass surface. The synthetic carpet surfacing will also be subject to climatic resistance testing which checks to see if the area is resilient to the effects of natural weather like rain and wind. To learn more abour our team please click here http://www.artificialrugbypitches.com/ A sports surface with the characteristics of an IRB Type 22 artificial surface should offer good player/surface interaction and be able to withstand the effects of play. Finally, rugby field testing will be done to see how the ball interacts with the surface in terms of rolling and bouncing.

How to Install an accredited Rugby Surface

When installed correctly, the specialist 3G sports turf will meet IRB Type 22 synthetic rugby pitch requirements.

  1. The construction process firstly involves fitting a porous stone sub base with a layer of macadam to act as a durable foundation.
  2. Next, a shockpad will be put down for added safety and impact absorption which protects players during training and matches.
  3. Finally the 3G synthetic carpet shall be laid out and secured with glue, and then the sand and rubber infill shall be applied and evenly distributed throughout.

In order to comply with the IRB accreditation, the final surface must contain the key qualities of durability, climatic resistance, player/surface interaction and ball/surface interaction.
