Installing fencing around sport pitches is crucial to ensure safety of spectators, buildings and people around the pitch. Fencing should be tall enough to keep balls and other sports equipment inside the pitch or court to reduce any risk of injury.
Sports fencing is installed around the perimeter of sport pitches, including football pitches, tennis courts, multi use game areas (MUGAs), rugby pitches and others. This helps protect spectators and buildings while games are being played and prevent intruders to the pitch which could result in costly damage.
Fencing around a sports pitch is crucial for keeping buildings, items and people around the sports pitch safe from balls and other sports equipment while in play. It also keeps your facility safe and secure from trespassers which protects your pitch or court from getting damaged.
There are a few things to consider when designing and installing fencing around a sports pitch. It is crucial to follow all regulations to ensure the fencing fulfils its purpose and keeps people and surrounding areas safe.
Fencing needs to be tall enough to prevent balls and other sporting items leaving the designated area. It is important to follow regulations to ensure safety.
Consider the colour of your fencing, it is recommended to use a colour that fits in with the surrounding area. The standard colours of sports fencing are green (RAL 6005) or black (RAL 9005).
The spacing between the wire of the fencing is also an important consideration. If there is likely to be spectators then wider spacing allows for them to see easier. Tighter spacing should be used at the bottom to prevent balls escaping out of the area.
Fencing with rebound properties helps reduce vibration and noise when the balls hit the fencing, this also helps keep balls in play.
Consider the maintenance requirements of the fencing you choose, correct and regular maintenance is crucial to ensure that the fencing fulfils its purpose. Choose a durable fencing whose maintenance you can manage.
Choose a fencing that has been certified and been through testing to ensure it can withstand wear and tear from various sports.
There is a range of different types of sports fencing available, including:
