Rutland is England’s smallest county, set between Leicestershire, Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire, with a landscape of rural villages, market towns and open countryside. Oakham and Uppingham are the main centres, each with strong community and educational links.
The county is known for its independent schools, including Oakham School and Uppingham School, both of which have long sporting traditions and extensive facilities. These institutions play a major role in local sport and create a consistent need for well maintained training and match surfaces.
Rutland has an active sporting scene despite its size, with strong participation in football, rugby, hockey and netball through local clubs and community programmes. Heavy year round usage places pressure on artificial pitches, making durable, well designed surfaces essential for organisations looking to maintain reliable performance.

Astroturf Resurfacing at English Martyrs Catholic School Hartlepool
Adsum Sport and Play brings more than 25 years of experience to synthetic pitch (often called Astroturf) resurfacing, helping facilities upgrade ageing surfaces to restore performance, safety and long term reliability. Our work spans professional clubs, universities, schools and community facilities across Rutland, built around a commitment to quality and long term reliability.
The original AstroTurf product was a short-pile synthetic turf invented in 1965 by Monsanto. It has since become a synonym for all types of artificial and synthetic playing surfaces.
After extended periods of use, synthetic pitches (often called Astroturf) inevitably show signs of wear, with fibres flattening, infill compacting and overall performance declining. Resurfacing replaces the old system with a new 2G, 3G or MUGA surface, often incorporating shock pad upgrades to enhance comfort and consistency. This process revitalises the facility and ensures it meets modern sporting expectations.
We manage resurfacing projects through a Prime Contractor model, coordinating technical assessments, surface removal and specialist installation using trusted local subcontractors. This ensures every resurfaced synthetic pitch is delivered to a high standard and ready for sustained, intensive use.
