A full hockey pitch is 91.4m × 55m (±5,000m²), but Hockey 5s, half pitches and training strips cost proportionally less per project.
New builds need a compacted stone sub-base and asphalt layer; resurfacing an existing sound base saves a large part of the budget.
Required for FIH-level certification and recommended everywhere for player safety — priced per m² on top of the turf.
Silica sand infill is standard; rubber infill or blends add cushioning and cost. WET systems skip infill but need irrigation.
Fencing, floodlights, irrigation, goals, dugouts and line markings for additional sports all shape the final project price.
We work countrywide — delivery distance and site access influence logistics costs, which we always itemise transparently.
Choose sand dressed hockey turf over WET if your budget is tight, resurface an existing base where sound, share a multi-sport layout with other codes, and buy wholesale direct — full rolls cost less per m² than cut sizes.
Itemised turf, infill and labour costs, delivery to your town, an 8-year UV warranty on the hockey grass and after-sales maintenance guidance.
