Artificial Rugby Pitches

Our synthetic rugby pitches are trusted by universities, the RFU, IRFU, and professional teams, offering surfaces that meet World Rugby standards for safety and performance.

All of our pitch systems are installed with a shock pad and infill to take the high impact of rugby; with construction works completed by our in-house team and the synthetic turf manufactured in our UK facility, we deliver 3G rugby pitches that are durable and high-performing.

Synthetic Surfaces

Hybrid Grass Rugby Pitches

Hybrid grass combines synthetic fibres with natural grass, creating a durable, high-performance surface. Designed for high impact and extended use, it resists wear and tear while maintaining a natural pitch performance.

Key Benefits:
• Durability: Reinforced to withstand the impacts of rugby matches and training.
• Consistent: Reliable performance year-round, significantly aiding in winter months.
• Extended Play: They can extend the amount of play up to three times as much as a natural grass pitch, reducing the strain on your surfaces and maintenance team.
• Tried & Tested: Famously used on the world stage, we installed the SIS Grass Hybrid solution for the 2023 Rugby World Cup Final.

Natural Grass Rugby Pitches

We use over 25 years of pitch construction experience to construct natural grass rugby pitches. We manage the whole package, from design to drainage, irrigation, undersoil heating, and rugby pitch maintenance.

SIS Pitches has multiple turf farms worldwide so that we can install our high-quality natural turf in our projects.

A natural grass rugby pitch can also be stitched with our SIS Grass Hybrid system to increase the durability and stability of the surface, which is perfect for improving the performance of a rugby pitch.

Rugby World Cup Final Pitch

In 2023, SIS Pitches provided the pitch for the Rugby World Cup final at the Stade de France. Natural turf was installed by SIS Pitches, followed by SIS Grass Hybrid stitching to provide the extra stability needed during major rugby tournaments. The pitch performed excellently throughout the tournament, a testament to our surfaces and the team installing them.
