Waikato Diocesan School for Girls

Waikato Diocesan School for Girls embarked on a transformative journey to upgrade their hockey facilities, inspired by a visit to Hamilton Boys High School. Witnessing the capabilities demonstrated at Hamilton Boys High School, Waikato Diocesan School for Girls eagerly enlisted TigerTurf to revitalize their hockey facilities, transitioning from an older TigerTurf surface with Netball and Tennis line markings to a top-level hockey surface.

Another World Class Hockey Facility in the Heart of Waikato

TigerTurf began the installation by laying a 10mm rubber pad, providing a solid foundation for the new surface. They then installed the WETT Pro surface, designed to meet the high standards of the International Hockey Federation (FIH). This state-of-the-art surface ensures that the field meets the rigorous demands of professional hockey. To add a personalized touch, a custom logo created by SignGrass was installed prominently at the halfway line, enhancing the field's aesthetics and school spirit.

Aiming to achieve FIH CLASS II lighting standards (500 Lux), the project included the strategic addition of extra light towers at the center of the field. The Lumosa LED Luminaires were chosen for their superior quality and energy efficiency, ensuring optimal visibility during evening games and practices.

In partnership with Think Water, TigerTurf also managed the installation of a sophisticated irrigation system to improve playing conditions. This system features solid set sprinklers positioned above ground, designed to simulate a genuine wet hockey field experience. The irrigation system perfectly complements the TigerTurf WETT Pro Turf, ensuring the field remains in top condition

Collaborating with TigerTurf is Always a Rewarding Experience

“Collaborating with TigerTurf is always a rewarding experience. The Hockey Turf Project at Waikato Diocesan School for Girls was executed proficiently. TigerTurf demonstrated their expertise by effectively addressing the challenges related to levelling the existing substrate. They also successfully achieved the necessary lighting standards using the pre-existing, shorter light poles. Communication with TigerTurf is consistently efficient and timely. Choosing a TigerTurf product ensures you are investing in top-quality.” – Phil Basel, OCTA Project Management
