GEN 2 PITCH CONSTRUCTION IN LEICESTERSHIRE

Leicestershire sits in the centre of England and includes a mix of busy urban areas, market towns and open countryside. Leicester is the main hub, supported by towns such as Loughborough, Hinckley, Melton Mowbray and Market Harborough.

The county is home to the University of Leicester and De Montfort University, along with Loughborough University which has a strong reputation for sport and performance research. Independent schools such as Loughborough Grammar School, Leicester Grammar School and Ratcliffe College contribute to a strong sporting culture and a steady demand for reliable facilities.

Leicestershire has an active sporting landscape, with professional football at Leicester City and a strong presence in rugby, hockey and netball through well established clubs and community programmes. Schools, colleges and clubs make year round use of their pitches, which places significant pressure on artificial surfaces. The county’s varied ground conditions and busy sporting calendar make durable, well planned sports pitches essential for consistent performance.

Adsum Sport and Play brings more than 25 years of experience to the design and construction of 2G pitches, delivering surfaces that provide reliable performance and long term durability for hockey, football training and a range of school and community sports. Our work spans professional clubs, universities, schools and community facilities across Leicestershire, built around a commitment to quality and long term reliability.

A modern 2G pitch is designed to offer a fast, true playing surface with excellent ball glide, making it the preferred choice for hockey while also supporting football training and general multi‑sport use. Construction typically involves precise ground preparation, a stable engineered base, and a sand‑dressed or sand‑filled synthetic turf system that delivers predictable ball movement and secure footing. When built correctly, a 2G surface provides year round consistency, reduced weather disruption and a dependable platform for both competitive and recreational play.

We deliver each project through a Prime Contractor model, overseeing planning, governance and quality assurance while working with trusted local subcontractors for specialist installation. This approach ensures every stage of the build is tightly managed, technically sound and aligned with the client’s performance requirements, resulting in a 2G pitch that is built to last and ready for sustained, high intensity use.
