Our synthetic pitches are of the highest quality. They are maintained on a regular basis: each pitch is ‘brushed’ 2–3 times a week. Our stadium pitch is UEFA 2* and International Rugby Board (IRB) compliant. We are a training venue regularly used by domestic and international football and rugby teams, including the Scottish Women’s Football Team and the All Blacks.
