Football Turf
built to perform.
Football turf systems with drainage, shock absorption and reliable playability.
Built for your site
Built for every training session and match day.
Our team assesses site conditions, use patterns and delivery requirements before specifying the right system for your project.
Discuss your projectFootball ground dimensions
Know the field before you build it.
The official playing area is only one part of a successful football facility. Use these dimensions to understand the field markings, then plan safety clearances, drainage, fencing, lighting and access around it.
Length, with a 64-75 m width range for international matches.
Penalty area depth and penalty-mark distance from the goal line.
Dimensions are from IFAB Law 1 and describe the playing area. A final turf layout needs additional engineering for run-off, drainage, fencing, lighting and local site conditions. View the official IFAB field-of-play guidance.
Football turf specification
Know what is
under the game.
A football turf system should be specified for the players, use intensity and site it will serve. The visible grass is only one part of the build.
Turf and infill
Pile profile, yarn construction and infill selection influence ball response, traction, comfort and the maintenance routine a facility needs.
Performance layers
A shock and performance layer can be considered where the brief calls for additional comfort, response and impact management.
Base and drainage
Levels, water movement and sub-base stability are planned before turf installation. This is what protects consistent play through regular use and weather.
When people ask for “FIFA-certified turf”, clarify the intended level of play and the performance target first. A quality football facility is a complete system - site preparation, drainage, base, surface and maintenance - not a turf roll alone.

Football turf FAQs
Answers before
you build.
What is the official size of a football ground?
Under IFAB Law 1, the field of play may be 90-120 m long and 45-90 m wide. International matches use a narrower range of 100-110 m long and 64-75 m wide. The playing area is only one part of the overall site plan.
How much space is needed for a football turf project?
In addition to the playing area, a project needs space for safe run-off, fencing, access, drainage, lighting infrastructure and maintenance. A site assessment determines the practical buildable footprint.
Do you manage drainage and civil works?
Yes. Exalt can coordinate ground preparation, drainage, sub-base, turf, line marking, lighting and accessories as a single turnkey project.
What affects football turf project cost?
The main drivers are site conditions, field format, base and drainage requirements, turf specification, lighting, fencing, goals and access constraints. A site assessment gives the clearest basis for a proposal.
How long does it take to build a football turf?
Programme length depends on the site, weather, drainage and the scope of civil works. Once we have assessed the site and agreed the specification, we can provide a realistic delivery schedule.
How is a football turf maintained?
Maintenance typically includes routine brushing, infill management where applicable, debris removal, seam inspection and periodic checks of drainage and surrounding infrastructure. The right schedule depends on the surface and usage intensity.
