Eastbourne Hockey Club's new synthetic surface A synthetic grass surface has been delivered at Eastbourne Hockey Club by O’Brien Contractors.
The East Sussex club awarded the contract for the hockey pitch resurfacing project, with works taking place over nine weeks.
This involved the removal of an existing 16-year-old sand filled synthetic grass surface, the adjustment of the existing sub base, and finally the installation of a 5,027m² ‘DOMO Hockey Xtreme MDC Ultra’ sand filled synthetic grass hockey pitch with inlaid lines.
Pre-installation sub base tests were conducted by O’Brien Contractors to ensure levels in each working area were in accordance with the specification.
Eastbourne’s pitch was officially opened by Great Britain and England women’s goalkeeper Maddie Hinch and the Mayor of Eastbourne.
