King Edward IV Multi Academy Trust case study
Forming part of the King Edward VI Multi Academy Trust, are two Camp Hill institutions for Boys and Girls. As part of the campus there are a number of outdoor pitches to cater for a plethora of sporting activities. Despite a number of outdoor pitches both grass and tarmac, it was decided by the school that the existing tarmac surface located next to the indoor facilities needed to be replaced. The Trust wanted to take the opportunity to install a new surface that could offer more protection to the students and could be used by both the girls and boys campuses. With this in mind Blakedown Sport & Play worked with the school to select a surface that met the needs of the school. Having undergone rigorous surface interaction tests Playrite’s Matchplay 2 was found to have higher levels of shock absorption, slip resistance, impact attenuation and rotation resistance, making artifi cial grass an ideal choice for physical environments. Playrite’s Matchplay 2 synthetic grass surface is a multi-use surface specifi cally designed to be used for multiple sports. Matchplay 2 also benefi ts from a low sand content allowing for playtime to be conducted all year round and all weather conditions.
