London FA announces partnership with Technical Surfaces
London FA is delighted to announce a brand-new partnership with Technical Surfaces Ltd as our official 3G Pitch Maintenance Partner, aiming to support the 3G pitches across the capital.
Established in 1998, Technical Surfaces provides a complete culture of preventative and corrective maintenance for 3G pitches and synthetic surfaces. Their client base exceeds 5,000 facilities at sports clubs, leisure centres, schools, colleges, and universities nationwide.
Quality assurance is increasingly fundamental to 3G pitch provision, and the best example of this is the FA 3G Pitch Register – the definitive list of all 3G Pitches in England with FIFA or FA approved classification. A pitch can only be listed on the 3G Register if it meets certain performance criteria, which in turn is only achieved through a sustained programme of specialist and routine maintenance.
Technical Surfaces philosophy is Maintaining Standards, and they apply this to not only to the work they do by helping to ensure that surfaces can be enjoyed at their best and safest, but also to the way they do business through their customer service. They are committed to researching and applying the latest maintenance techniques to benefit all users of 3G pitches and other synthetic sports surfaces. Technical Surfaces are proud of their contribution to the advancement of synthetic turf maintenance and look forward to continuing 'Maintaining Standards'.
Sinead Merry, Business Development Manager at Technical Surfaces, said: “Technical Surfaces is delighted to be working in partnership with London FA to deliver quality maintenance to 3G pitches across the region. From recreational football to competitive matches, we understand how important it is for players across London and the surrounding areas to have confidence in their 3G facilities, both as a quality playing surface and in terms of health & safety.
We are proud to be investing in grassroots football across London and the wider community and look forward to delivering specialist maintenance to 3G pitches, as well as undertaking our indicative performance testing on FIFA Quality and Quality Pro surfaces and providing ongoing technical support to all synthetic pitches in the region."
Aquila Burgess, Head of Partnerships at London FA said: “I’m delighted that Technical Surfaces Ltd have come onboard as our as 3G Pitch Maintenance Partner, to support the 3G landscape across London.
