Academies operate across a wide range of sites, from large multi‑academy trusts to individual schools with growing student populations. Their sports programmes often include football, rugby, hockey and netball, supported by regular training sessions and competitive fixtures that place steady pressure on their facilities.
Many academies run extended school days, enrichment programmes and community partnerships, which increase the demand on pitches throughout the week. With pupils of different ages using the same spaces, reliable surfaces are essential for maintaining safety, performance and year round availability.
The combination of busy timetables, mixed ability groups and frequent fixtures means that artificial pitches play a central role in academy sport. Well planned surfaces help schools manage high usage, reduce weather‑related disruption and provide consistent playing conditions for students across all year groups.

Our work at Springwest Academy Feltham
Adsum Sport and Play brings more than 25 years of experience to Multi Use Games Area resurfacing, helping facilities upgrade worn systems to restore safety, consistency and long term performance across a wide range of sports. Our work is primarily focused within the counties surrounding our Buckinghamshire headquarters, supported by a national footprint that allows us to deliver consistently wherever Academies are based.
Over many years of regular activity, MUGA surfaces naturally lose their grip, texture and overall responsiveness as the system becomes compacted, contaminated or worn. Resurfacing replaces the ageing surface with a modern polymeric or sand‑dressed system, restoring traction, ball behaviour and multi sport usability while ensuring the facility meets current safety and performance 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 MUGA is delivered to a high standard, technically robust and ready for reliable, year round use by a wide range of participants.
