Sports Pitch Lighting

It outlines the benefits of including outdoor sports lighting and sets out the three key early steps in the design development process.

Sports pitch lighting.

The pitch was 80m x 40m. Four 16m rooted lighting columns were installed with floodlights on each providing 400 lux light level. The sports pitch lighting is designed to minimise glare and light spill which is a concern for clubs located in residential and built up areas. Getting the best lighting doesn t necessarily mean buying the very best top of the range floodlights.

We have installation experience in a full range of sporting facilities including tennis football rugby hockey and athletics. At sbe our floodlighting solutions deliver the correct amount of light for all activities such as training public and parking areas aswell as the main playing pitch. We are often approached by small football rugby and tennis clubs to provide led lighting to help them illuminate their facilities all year around. This briefing note aims to encourage developers of mugas and artificial pitches to include outdoor sports lighting within their proposals.

We have completed floodlit solutions throughout the country in all different sporting disciplines and continue to work provide an innovative high quality lighting solution for all. Because recreational football is usually played in the evening effective lighting maximizes the opportunity for people to take part in the game although the lighting level will obviously be lower than for broadcasted matches the lighting quality should remain high in terms of uniformity visual comfort and limitation of obtrusive light especially in residential areas where leisure sports.
