FieldTurf chosen to be the very first 3G pitch in Jersey
The project also included the installation of new rebound boards and netting to the perimeter of the pitch and new divisional boarding to provide a number of 5 a side pitches.
Mike Graham, Managing Director at Les Ormes commented "Jersey for a small Island has a large soccer community with many Poles, Portuguese, Scots and northern English adding to the local players. With no quality indoor facility on the Island Les Ormes spent some time researching what would be the best product to meet this demand and work as a business. With some UK visits we decided on the market leader FieldTurf through ERDC. With a long lead in time we set clear start and end dates. The team arrived and did what they said they would do. A great hassle free quality install undertaken by a team that clearly knew what they were doing, and they finished ahead of time. Very pleased. The Jersey football community is now enjoying this great new facility."
ERDC's Dave Fernley comments "We were thrilled to be given the opportunity to install Jersey's very first 3G pitch. We thank Mike and his team for working closely with us to ensure that the project was completed ahead of programme and with minimal disruption to the resort. We wish the staff at Les Ormes many years of success with the facility."
