In 2019, a school in Bukovany, a municipality in the Hodonín District of the South Moravian Region in the Czech Republic, sought to upgrade its outdoor sports facilities with a durable and versatile surface. The objective was to create a multipurpose school playground that could accommodate various sports while also being accessible to the public. Playrite’s Matchplay 2 was selected as the ideal solution for the project due to its outstanding durability, low maintenance requirements, and suitability for multiple sporting activities.
In 2019, a school in Bukovany, a municipality in the Hodonín District of the South Moravian Region in the Czech Republic, sought to upgrade its outdoor sports facilities with a durable and versatile surface. The objective was to create a multipurpose school playground that could accommodate various sports while also being accessible to the public. Playrite’s Matchplay 2 was selected as the ideal solution for the project due to its outstanding durability, low maintenance requirements, and suitability for multiple sporting activities.
The school needed a surface that could withstand high usage levels from students and community members while maintaining performance and safety standards. The goal was to provide a facility suitable for a variety of sports, including football, basketball, and tennis, while ensuring year-round usability with minimal upkeep. Additionally, the school wanted to create an inclusive space that would be accessible to both students and the wider community, offering a long-lasting, cost effective solution.
To meet these needs, the school opted for Playrite’s Matchplay 2, a versatile synthetic surface specifically designed for
multi-sport environments. With its durable needlepunch construction, the surface provides excellent playability across different sports, while the sand-dressed finish enhances grip and safety. One of its standout advantages is its low maintenance requirements, reducing long-term upkeep costs. Its weather-resistant properties also ensure consistent performance, regardless of seasonal conditions.
The installation was carried out by Precol, an experienced contractor specialising in artifi cial sports surfaces. The process was completed efficiently, minimising disruption to the school’s daily operations. Since its installation, the new surface has transformed the school’s outdoor play area, enabling students to engage in a wide range of sports while also providing a valuable recreational space for the local community.
A representative from the Precol commented: “We presented Playrite’s Matchplay 2 to the school as it is suitable for multi sports and relatively low maintenance. The surface has been a great addition to the community’s outdoor area, allowing everyone to enjoy various activities in a safe and high-quality environment.”
The project has demonstrated the benefits of investing in a multi-use surface, enhancing both school sports programs and community engagement.
