Football Lighting: LED Floodlight Design, Installation & Repair
Floodlighting of football pitches is really important. We understand that the right lighting allows your pitches to be used more frequently for matches & training. As most recreational football takes place after work, it may allow you to support more players & teams. There may even be the opportunity to increase revenue by allowing other activities to take place at your ground.
Working with leading lighting engineers, we can design & install efficient & flexible lighting schemes that allow teams to use your facilities throughout the year & meet the requirements of the SFA. We are able to work with grounds that need lighting for televised matches & occasional lighting for community clubs, universities & schools etc.
