A well designed land drainage system is essential when constructing a sports pitch.  Without a specialist system to remove surface water the pitch can become waterlogged and rapidly unplayable.  In addition surface compaction causes inefficient water dispersal and can compound the problem.

UK soils require at least primary land drainage and secondary systems are likely to be a requisite when the playing surface is to be used year round.  Waterlogged turf not only means a surface which is unusable but it also causes damage to the grass.  Not installing an adequate drainage system can lead to cancellation of sporting fixtures and resulting financial losses.  An efficient drainage system will maintain grass sward quality, improve soil structure and keep your playing surface at its best.
