About Bolton Lads and Girls Club (BLGC)<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

With its longstanding history of providing the young people of Bolton with a safe and fun place to spend their free time, Bolton Lads and Girls Club<\/a> (BLGC) has always facilitated a variety of recreational and performing arts opportunities, alongside a diverse range of sporting activities.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Yet, with football teams ranging from Under 7\u2019s to Veterans to accommodate, the club\u2019s existing, natural grass pitch was in no way up to the task, and enough was enough for the club\u2019s Commercial Manager, Andrew Tower.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Turf options for every situation<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Our artificial football pitches offer consistent playability regardless of the weather conditions, are highly durable and can withstand intense training sessions, frequent matches, and adverse weather conditions without deteriorating. Plus, for clubs like BLGC, they\u2019re a brilliant way to save time, resources and costs associated with regular maintenance, as they require significantly less maintenance compared to natural grass pitches.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Longevity and Maintenance: A Testament to Quality<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Almost a decade later, we caught up with Andrew to see how our artificial turf helped the club, and discovered that since the installation took place, the club\u2019s turf is still in pristine condition, and not only was it able to accommodate matches more regularly, but all other types of play increased dramatically.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, Andrew and his team have done a great job at maintaining the pitch, and when any heavy-duty maintenance is needed, we\u2019re here to help.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A pitch for all: supporting the local community<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Not only do the club now have several external contractors who use the facilities, this artificial grass pitch has offered the surrounding area\u2019s younger and older people the chance to play at all levels, all year round, helping to get children off the streets and playing sports. Bolton Lads and Girls Club has also grown from 15 teams to 32, plus their own Junior kicks sessions which sees them working with many more children.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to upgrade your pitch to artificial turf, please get in touch with one of our team today.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
