Top recognition for a pitch used by students, local clubs, and professional teams year-round.
We’re really excited to share some amazing news! Our 3G pitch at the Langstone Sports Site has been named Hampshire FA 3G ATP Pitch of the Year! This award celebrates the very best artificial sports pitches in Hampshire, and we’re proud to have been chosen as number one.
The award is given by Hampshire FA and their partners, Technical Surfaces. A team of experts visits and looks at many 3G pitches across the county before selecting the winner. They check how safe the pitch is, how well it is looked after, how it is used by different people, and how good it is for playing sports all year round.
Our 3G pitch was first built in 2013 and resurfaced in 2017. Even though it’s over 10 years old, it still looks and plays like new. This is thanks to the hard work of our operations and grounds teams, who look after the pitch carefully all year round. We also replaced the floodlights with new energy-saving LED lights, which make evening games brighter and help the environment.
The Langstone 3G pitch is used by a wide range of people, including the University of Portsmouth sports teams, local schools, colleges, and community clubs, as well as Hampshire Premier League and professional teams such as Portsmouth FC. It’s the home ground for Southsea Sports, Baffins Milton Rovers Youth, and Soccer Scholar Academy.
The pitch isn’t just for football. It’s designed to host rugby, lacrosse, american football and small-sided football games, making it a brilliant all-weather space for many different sports. To make things even better, a second 3G pitch was built at the Langstone Sports Site recently, meaning even more players can enjoy the facilities, whatever the weather.
We’re absolutely thrilled to win this award! It shows how much effort goes into keeping our pitches in top condition. We love seeing students, local clubs and community players out there enjoying sport and having a great time. This pitch really is for everyone, and winning this award is a big team achievement."
This award proves that Langstone Sports Site is one of the best places to play in Hampshire. Whether you’re a young player dreaming of joining a big club, a team chasing victories, or just having a kickabout with friends, our award-winning 3G pitch is here for you - rain or shine.
