multi-sports
fields

The construction of this type of land is currently in vogue because it provides a concrete response to several objectives:

Promotes sports and social diversity by allowing several generations to practice in the same place.

Reduces development and maintenance costs with a unique and sustainable infrastructure.

Provides ongoing animation within communities or schools.

Reinforces the green and dynamic image of the territories.

The construction of a multi-sport field follows several key steps

1. Site study and design : soil analysis, choice of location, sizing and definition of the sports to be integrated (football, basketball, volleyball, handball, etc.).
2. Earthworks and land preparation : levelling, compaction and setting of slopes for water drainage.
3. Drainage installation : network of pipes and filter layers to ensure a dry and passable surface.
4. Installation of the sports surface : synthetic turf, asphalt, resin or acrylic surface depending on the uses and climate.
5. Installation of equipment : fences, goals, baskets, floor markings, lighting and sports furniture.
6. Quality control and acceptance : verification of finishes, flatness, rebound and resistance tests to ensure compliance.

The cost of building a multi-sport field depends heavily on the size, the type of surface, the equipment and the options (fencing, lighting, drainage, etc.). Here are some points of reference for information purposes only, and not binding on the company, here is a price range

1. For standard dimensions (24×12 m): a budget ranging from €50,000 to €80,000. pour dimensions standard ( 24×12 m) : u budget allant de 50 000 € à 80 000 €.
2. For high-end level: a budget of up to €190,000 or more

Choosing the right technique to build a multi-sport field depends on the intended use, the budget and the level of performance sought

1. Acrylic resin (basketball, handball, tennis): applied to draining or asphalt concrete, it offers a regular bounce, good adhesion and minimal maintenance. UV and weather resistant, it is suitable for outdoor school or communal grounds
2. Fibrillated synthetic turf (football, multi-sport): made of plastic fibres on a weft with sandblasted infill, it offers excellent cushioning, effective drainage and intensive use all year round. Versatile, it allows several sports markings and remains passable in all weathers

The best technique is the one that guarantees stability, playing comfort and low maintenance in the long term. A precise diagnosis of the land and an informed choice of pavement ensure a long-term investment.

1. Compact format (school, neighbourhood): approx. 15 × 25 m = 375 m².
2. Intermediate format (communal): 18 × 30 m = 540 m².
3. Full size (heavy use): 22 × 44 m = 970 m², compliant with most standardised multi-sport kits.

The construction of a multi-sport field must comply with strict standards to guarantee safety, accessibility and quality of play. These requirements include dimensions, siding, fencing, lighting, and compliance with federal rules.

NF EN 15312 : European standard for sports equipment with free access (dimensions, resistance, safety).

NF P90-110 : requirements for fences and ball guards (min. height 3 m, no protruding angles).

EN 14877 standard : outdoor sports surfaces (grip, permeability, damping).

By applying these standards from the design stage, the result is equipment that is reliable, durable and perfectly suited to intensive use. This is the key to securing the investment and ensuring quality sports practice.

Building a multi-sport field requires mastering several technical constraints related to the soil, drainage, choice of surface and resistance of the equipment. Each element must be sized to withstand frequent and varied use. Here are the main constraints:

1. Nature of the soil
2. Drainage
3. Foundation
4. Climate
5. Coating
6. Mechanical resistance : structures in accordance with NF EN 15312
7. Lighting and fencing
8. Maintenance

It is necessary to anticipate these stresses in order to avoid flatness defects, premature wear or water drainage problems. Rigorous treatment of the ground guarantees durable, high-performance and safe equipment for all users.
