Elite Sports Surfaces

"This is the first major refurbishment of our astro since its opening, and I am delighted that it has restored the facility to be one of the best in the region, and one which matches the commitment and ability of our students and sports coaches."

John Attwater, principal of King’s Ely

"The pitch was built at a difficult time of year weather wise however the quality of the workmanship and the attention to detail was spot on and it was clear Velocity took pride in delivering to a high specification. They were flexible in adapting to change and ensured the programme stayed on track throughout the build. I would have no hesitation in recommending them."

Simon Tunley, Head of Sport, University of Sussex

"This is a superb new facility which the school can benefit from for many years, I’d like to place on record our thanks to Velocity and in particular Harry from their site team. I’d also like to thank Wes and SSL for their co-ordination of the project, from first contact to final handover the service has been exceptional from all involved."

Headteacher, Sam McMahon, Cornwallis Academy

"We are delighted with the substantial investment by Telford and Wrekin Council into the Telford Athletics Stadium. The investment in the stadium is a massive boost for athletics in Telford, Shropshire and the West Midlands. It gives Telford facilities that many towns across the West Midlands do not have, especially to such a high standard."

Paul Sanderson, Secretary of Telford Athletics Club

"The project was very well run and all staff and management performed extremely well. A very successful project with great pre-construction advice and energy to achieve a unique colour and branding requirement."

Neil Moulton, the schools Bursar, Lambrook School

"‘We’re incredibly grateful to Will and the Velocity team who have been on this journey with us for the past few years and have helped to deliver this exceptional new facility."

Headteacher, Ian Straw, The Forest School, Horsham

"The new pitch is the best 3G I have played on. The style of football we promote means we need a surface that plays like grass, and we went through extensive research to find the most natural playing surface available and feel as though we have achieved that. I have to say Velocity Sports were very professional and easy to deal with from the client’s perspective, from initial enquiry to the handover of the new pitch the level of service was excellent."

Ben Herd , Hertford Town FC

"We are so pleased with our new all-weather surface. The finished product is even better than we had hoped it would be. During the construction programme we found Velocity staff to be hard working, knowledgeable, helpful and extremely friendly. I would highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again for any future projects."

Heather Cook, Bursar

"We wanted to create an identity for Beaconsfield as a football club, and with the development that is what we did. Beaconsfield has not traditionally had a big attendance in terms of crowds, as we can have as little as 80 people, but sometimes with an away crowd, we can get up to 250/300 people. So, the issue we have is how can we get the local community to come along and watch us? A way of doing that is getting children to play at the club and get their parents to come along as well. But we need to have a product attractive enough to sell for people to come and watch us in the first place, now we have that."

Managing director, Peter Bromage, Beaconsfield Town FC
