For schools, universities, sports clubs and other organisations who are Non-VAT registered, Finance Leases are the recommended option for financing a new facility, as it allows you to spread the cost of VAT over the financing term.
As with Hire Purchase Agreements, Finance Leases are available to a variety of sectors. For organisations in the education, sports or leisure sectors who are Non-VAT Registered, a finance lease allows you to spread the cost of your new sports facility (including VAT) over a period of 1-7 years.
The lease enables you to construct a new sports facility, or resurface one, such as a synthetic pitch, in return for agreed regular* payments, with no deposit required.
Benefits of a Finance Lease
We work exclusively with Buckingam Finance, offering you finance lease agreement options that work for your needs.

Funding from the government and organisations like the national lottery are often delivered via sport governing bodies, like Sport England.
Sport England offer a number of funding options for community level and elite level facilities, which you may be eligible to apply for when funding a new sports project or refurbishment.
Local and regional councils will often also have grants available for sporting projects that can demonstrate specific benefit to the local community. These may be partial or full grants depending on the size and scope of the project, they also may require additional fundraising in support of the grant.
We encourage you to refer to your local council’s website to see what may be available in your area.
The Football Foundation is a charity partnership between The Premier League, The FA and The Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport, established to help communities improve their local football facilities through football grants.
Over 20 years, they have allocated grants to construct 829 artificial grass pitches, 1091 changing room/pavilion facilities and improved 3091 natural grass pitches.
With £60m allocated in 2019 alone, it’s worth looking into the eligibility options to see whether your school or local facility may be able to apply for funding from the scheme.
We’re proud to be official suppliers to the Football Foundation’s AGP Framework with our artificial turf partners FieldTurf. Together, we deliver projects funded by the Football Foundation to provide first-class facilities to communities across the country. Recent examples include delivering Swindon Town FC Community Trust’s new 3G training pitch and a state-of-the-art 3G artificial grass pitch at Fleet Primary School in London , officially opened by former Arsenal player Robert Pires.
Many sports facilities are located on high value land but realising the land’s value can be complex. Our in-house Design & Planning division are experienced in relocation projects and can advise you on the potential for developer funded relocation.
With a poor-performing natural turf pitch in need of repair, Ringmer AFC faced an uncertain future. Thanks to housing developer Bedford Park developments, the club were able to sell their land for housing development, with the developer covering the cost of both relocation and construction of a cutting-edge new 3G Pitch and clubhouse.
The demand for high-quality artificial turf pitch hire across the UK is high, with the likes of 3G Pitches and water-based hockey pitches commanding high hourly rental rates.
Many organisations enjoy the benefit of additional revenue from their new-build or refurbished facilities through pitch hire. See how non-league football clubs are reaping the rewards from their 3G Stadia Pitches .

Funding of up to £25,000 for 3G pitch maintenance machinery and equipment
You don’t have to be a football club to apply to the Football Foundation, however, grassroots football must be an integral part of your offer.
To apply for a grant towards 3G pitch maintenance machinery and equipment, you must first agree to keep your facility on The FA 3G Pitch Register for the duration of the terms and conditions of the award.
The 3G pitch should be tested, and then tested again every three years for grassroots football or every year for football in the National League System. This will enable the 3G to be used for affiliated league matches and therefore help the 3G pitch to be used to its maximum potential by programming matches at peak times.
The machinery should be purchased in line with the recommendation of your pitch manufacturer, pitch installer or specialist pitch consultant.
If successful with your application, we expect your equipment to be covered by suitable insurance and securely stored when not in use. It should be maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations, and we'd request that it’s only used by suitably trained operators.
If your pitch was delivered with a grant from the Football Foundation and maintenance machinery was provided as part of the project, replacement machinery should be funded from the machinery and equipment sinking fund, as identified in the business plan for the site, and not through an additional grant from the Foundation.
Are you a football club looking for funding.
Please note that only the Chair, Secretary or Treasurer of that Club can submit an application form.
Applications submitted since 1 July 2023 by other members of the Club will be rejected. You’ll be contacted by the Football Foundation team and asked that an authorised person complete a new funding application.
When it comes to the acceptance and claiming stages of your grant, the secondary contact nominated to co-sign the required forms must also fulfil one of the roles of Chair, Secretary or Treasurer of the Football Club.
Tenure required.
There is no security of tenure requirements for the purchase of pitch maintenance machinery, but the applicant will be liable for the machinery and equipment for the length of the five-year clawback period.
Before you apply, you'll need the following documents:
Once you’ve submitted your application, we’ll send you a confirmation email. Your application will then be assessed by our Grant Management Team and you’ll receive an email normally within ten working days with a link to download your decision letter and T&Cs on your Football Foundation account.
We’ve given the red card to spam or sales mailing lists, you’ll only get the latest news and exciting developments from the grassroots game. Sound good?

Third Generation surfaces (3G) have been developed to replicate natural turf, with outstanding performance, reduced ball bounce, and low resistance to turning and sliding – offering greater safety to players, more realistic conditions, and greater durability. 3G pitches are used from recreational to elite competitive levels.
In 3G turf, the pile (artificial grass ‘blades’) is supported by a thin base layer of sand, and by an infill of rubber crumb or a biodegradable suitable alternative. The pile height ranges from 40mm to 60mm depending on which primary sport is to be played on the surface. The shorter pile height is suitable for football and hockey, whilst the longer pile height is suitable for football and rugby.
A shockpad is installed beneath the playing surface to cushion the player upon impact with the ground. This is especially important for the shorter pile turfs designed to speed up football play and allow for hockey play, as the protective capability of the turf is less substantial in shorter pile lengths.
The 3G sports turf can be laid straight onto a stone base with or without the use of a shockpad. This is called a Dynamic system. The optimum construction build-up for 3G pitches is to use a single or double layer of porous macadam to offer a much greater degree of stability. This is called an Engineered system.
The base construction of a 3G pitch is comprised of free-draining stone layer and textile membrane on top of prepared soil formation.
The two main yarn types are monofilament and fibrillated: a monofilament yarn is manufactured as a single fibre string which is nominally preferred for higher specification football and rugby pitches (FIFA Quality, for example). Fibrillated yarn is manufactured as a fibrillating fibre tape, nominally offering greater durability against frequent and intensive use (a 5-a-side facility, for example)
4G surfaces and beyond are developed 3G surfaces, with the primary aim to omit performance infill (SBR/rubber crumb). New systems are also being established with the further aim to remove sand infill, creating an entirely infill free system. However, these changes create more abrasive systems and are thus not approved by FIFA and National Governing Bodies.
Blakedown Sport & Play strongly recommend contacting us to discuss and evaluate these concepts regarding your specific project.

With a variety of different types of artificial pitches available on today’s market, end users have several factors to consider when it comes to choosing the right 3G pitch for their facility and its needs.
Here are three things to consider in order to pick the right artificial sports turf.
1. What is the intended application?
It’s important to have a clear idea of exactly what the surfaces are going to be used for. Making assumptions on the best synthetic football turf for the facility, rather than consulting a qualified sports surface contractor can have hugely negative consequences on the lifespan of the pitch itself, the quality of the sport played on it, and ultimately the return on investment.
In the case of 3G pitches, this means considering whether it is going to be used recreationally, such as in a school environment, or if it’s intended for elite level football.
2. The FIFA QUALITY mark
To distinguish the differences in qualities between pitches, FIFA has set a benchmark for artificial football pitches to meet – the FIFA QUALITY mark and the FIFA QUALITY PRO mark.
The FIFA QUALITY PRO mark identifies pitches which successfully mimic the high-quality performance and safety requirements for professional football, for a typical usage of up to 20 playing hours per week. There are also stricter requirements for international match pitches, such as its size.
On the other hand, the FIFA QUALITY mark distinguishes pitches that meet the standards for community and municipal football. This includes being durable, resistant, safe and high performing in environments where there are 40-60 playing hours per week.
3. What does the end-user really need and expect from an artificial grass football pitch?
For schools in particular, new synthetic surfaces may need to be used for a multitude of activities in addition to football to fulfil their curricular obligations. Therefore, versatility and durability can often prove a key factor as to which 3G surface is chosen. There is also an increasing number of schools keen to use their sports fields as an additional revenue stream by making it available to community sports clubs.
Those looking for a multi-use playing surface should consider a 3G football pitch with a monofilament yarn. This is due to the manufacturing process, which enables different profiles and thicknesses to be offered, increasing its resilience. In addition, straight monofilament yarn can be created to reduce ball roll and offer a slower surface for football.
4. What is the reality of usage?
From the very start, it needs to be known how many hours per week the 3G pitches will be used for and who by. A pitch that is only used during school hours Monday to Friday is very different to one that is also used by community football clubs during weekday evenings and at weekends. And this needs to be factored into the specification stage of a project to ensure a system is fitted that is well suited to its intended use.

3g pitch installation.
3G artificial pitch construction is mainly carried out at high schools, leisure centres and sports clubs, this is because the 3G artificial grass is perfect for Rugby and Football, which are two of the most popular sports across the nation. The artificial grass carpet is installed over a sub base – the sub base is designed to make sure that the playing surface is completely flat for when the 3G artificial pitch construction takes place. It also makes sure the pitch is completely porous as it allows for water to pass through it.
Our team have completed many of these projects so feel free to contact us if you would like to find out more. We’d be happy to give you a quote for a full installation if you fill in our contact form with all of the details.
The 3G artificial pitch construction should potentially take place over a shock pad, which is recommended for sports pitches that are being used for rugby as it is a full contact game that could result in a lot of injuries without it. Not only that, the sub base ensures that the carpet does not slip, making sure that the product life is as long as it can be. The carpet has a moderate pile height and is fitted with a rubber and sand infill that helps maintain the height of the fibres throughout play.
3G synthetic pitch installation costs can vary on a lot of different factors, the biggest factor being the size of the pitch that’s being constructed, obviously the bigger the pitch, the more expensive the job is going to be due to more 3G carpet being used. You can also get different specifications for 3G artificial pitch construction; this means that certain accreditations set by governing bodies can be met, such as FIFA 1 and 2 star, allowing for more control and customization over your sports pitch, helping you control the 3G synthetic pitch installation costs.
In this video the process of a 3G sports pitch is shown, this is a project we carried out in Gloucestershire to create a multi use football pitch in 3G synthetic turf.
When having your 3G synthetic pitch installed, you can opt to have a variety of extra features for your sports pitch such as sports facility fencing , and there is also the option to have floodlighting installed so the pitch can be used for evening matches. 3G synthetic pitch installation costs should always take into account a maintenance plan for once the sports pitch has been installed, a thorough maintenance plan can ensure that the product life of the sports surface is much longer and extensive than without one. We aim to give the best quality sports pitch at the best possible value, ensuring a happy customer that is able to stay within their budget.

Be sure to contact us if you have any further questions about 3G artificial pitch construction or you need some advice on what surface type to choose. You can use our enquiry form to send us over the details of your project and we’ll give you some product sheets and specifications, along with an idea of costs for the construction work. Once the sports pitch installation has been completed, we can also offer your maintenance and cleaning services to keep the facility performing to its maximum potential over long periods of time.
Our team would be happy to talk through the installation process and help you decide on the perfect specification. Just let us know if you have any questions and we’ll give you some professional advice.

Artificial Grass Pitches (AGPs) provide a high-quality surface that are an integral part of modern community sport.
Recognised as durable, safe, year-round playing surfaces, they’re able to withstand intensive use and all kinds of weather.
A properly maintained AGP can sustain up to 80 hours of use a week, providing an average of around 1,400 playing opportunities. This compares favourably to a good quality grass pitch, which can sustain just six hours a week, accommodating an average of around 100 playing opportunities.
This means many people are able to engage in sport and physical activity regardless of the weather when otherwise matches would be cancelled.
AGPs therefore enable more people to experience the benefits of being active, such as improved physical health and mental wellbeing and improved confidence.
They're used for playing many different sports, including football, hockey and rugby; and provide safe spaces for people to come together and connect, helping unite communities.
It's critical that our sports facilities are flexible and resilient to reflect the real everyday requirements of users and meet societal changes.
However, concerns have been raised about the environmental impact of these pitches. These have mostly related to microplastics in the form of rubber infill getting into the ecosystem and the need for greater focus on the end-of-life recycling of pitches. We understand these concerns and are taking them very seriously.
In September 2023 the European Commission completed the adoption of the EU REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals) restriction on the sale of intentionally added microplastics onto the European market, which includes rubber infill for 3G AGPs.
The Commission has confirmed an eight-year transition period before the new restriction becomes effective and from October 2031, you'll no longer be able to purchase rubber crumb within the EU.
The ruling does not prevent the continued use of this material for AGPs, nor does it prevent the construction of new pitches with rubber crumb infill before 2031 – but it may make the maintenance of these pitches after this time difficult.
The transition period is important because it allows the 3G AGPs that are in widespread use by communities across Europe, to continue to be used and maintained until they reach their end-of-life.
Replacement surfaces are very expensive, and many communities would simply be unable to afford to do so before the end of the transition.
Following the UK’s exit from the EU, the regulatory framework for these matters now sits at a UK level (except for Northern Ireland, which continues to follow EU REACH requirements).
The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) recently commissioned an evidence project to review emissions of intentionally added microplastics in the UK, including rubber infill.
The project is expected to report in spring 2025 and will inform any future regulatory actions in Great Britain.
The Sports Councils – Sport England, Sport Wales, sportscotland, Sport NI – and leading sport bodies continue to work together and with respective governments to understand what the EU ban will mean for the stock of 3G AGPs in the UK, and the timings for any legislative decisions.
As stakeholders, in the community sport landscape we're committed to exploring alternative artificial pitch systems, more sustainable infill products and increasing recycling capacity available to sports providers nationwide.
This commitment is reinforced through Sport England’s Sustainability Strategy ‘Every Move’. Sport England will work with partners and stakeholders, including the Football Foundation, to explore viable alternatives to the rubber infill used in third generation 3G AGPs and improved recycling opportunities and processes, given concerns about plastic pollution and waste.
Examples of this include the Football Foundation's significant investment in its own ‘test hub’ to research alternative infill materials.
Many of the alternatives to rubber crumb are new to the market, and little is known about their performance, durability, availability, lifecycle cost and importantly the impact on player experience.
We are entering a period where there will be choices to make and it’s important that data exists to help future AGP owners make the right choice for their pitch.
Until we have a clearer understanding of these alternatives, we believe that the adoption of containment measures is an important and responsible approach to prevent the migration of microplastics.
The Football Foundation has followed European Technical Guidance since 2020, installing containment measures on all its funded pitches.
We know from studies around Europe that good design can reduce infill loss by 98%.
In partnership with the Football Foundation, Sport England is also undertaking research on the efficacy of containment measures and we’re commited to making the research available as soon as possible.
We acknowledge the difficulty in trying to balance the health and well-being benefits that come from the use of 3G pitches with environmental sustainability factors. However, it is also important to note that there are currently no widely available alternative infill products with proven durability on the market that are as effective, suitable for all UK weather conditions and deliver the required performance standards.
We'll continue to work with partners across the UK and Europe to research and reduce the spread of microplastics into the environment.
More information will be published as discussions progress.
This document has been prepared as result of a collaboration between the key stakeholders listed above to bring together a series of frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding the use of infill materials in “third generation” (3G) artificial grass (aka synthetic turf) pitches.
