Sports & Recreation Centre is at the heart of University of
Kent’s Canterbury campus
The Sports & Recreation Centre is at the heart of the
University of Kent’s Canterbury campus and operates a
sport-for-all policy to encourage everyone to keep fit
and healthy.
As part of the University’s commitment to extend the
services on offer to its students and the local
community, the University has invested a further £1.5m
in a new synthetic pitch complex.
The complex includes a full size 3rd Generation Grass
Football Pitch, and a full size football/hockey pitch
both floodlit by Abacus Lighting. In addition, the
investment includes refurbished tennis and netball
courts (which now includes two recreational basketball
rings), a beach volleyball pitch and spectator seating.
Both floodlit pitches utilised Abacus new flat glass
Challenger 1 floodlight, a high performance floodlight
with double asymmetric beam distribution ensuring zero
upward light, tight control of overspill and minimal
glare to onlookers. To ensure ease of maintenance, the
tried and trusted HL250 base hinged raising and lowering
mast was specified. The HL250 uses a hydraulic
counterbalance which attaches to the base of the mast
and safely lowers the mast to ground level providing
hassle free maintenance.
The complex was officially ‘opened’ by Neale Cooper,
Manager of Gillingham FC, at a well attended event on
the 2nd October. The new pitches have already proved to
be extremely popular, with over 1000 public users on the
pitches in the first week after the £1.5 million
development was completed. Mike Wilkins, the Sports
Centre's Director of Sport, said ‘The facilities are now
some of the best in the country and it really is
tremendous to see so many people from the local
community using them.’
