Bethel Gospel Tabernacle Soccer Field
A regulation size soccer pitch, site-fit into a tight footprint using imported material from the neighbouring development — completed on-time and on budget with positive surface drainage built in from day one.
Site-fitting a premier pitch into a tight footprint.
Greenhorizons was consulted during the initial stages of this soccer field project. The challenge was to design a regulation size soccer pitch utilizing imported material from a development site next door, all while minimizing earth moving requirements.
We proposed a “push-up” design to raise the playing surface and ensure positive surface drainage, then laid out the field within the area desired by Bethel before construction began.
From bare earth to a finished pitch.
A look at the site preparation, turf-specific equipment and drainage work that went into this installation.
Site Prep
Carefully levelling and removing any debris from the field.
Hydrating Freshly Laid Turf
Getting water to freshly laid sod as soon as possible.

Approach, challenges & results.
Installation
Greenhorizons proposed a “push-up” design to raise the playing surface and ensure positive surface drainage, laying out the field within the area desired by Bethel before construction began.
Challenges
We were able to “site-fit” a premier regulation sized soccer field into the existing grade, using access material from the adjacent development site while minimizing impact on the neighbouring property.
Results
The field layout and grade fit very well into the property and the project was completed on-time and on budget.
