What makes the Perfect Artificial Rugby Pitch?

Based in Limerick, home of twice European Champions Munster Rugby, Mike and Marie McSweeney know a thing or two about what makes for quality and enduring artificial sports pitches.
Technical features and standards for a synthetic rugby pitch
The McSweeney approach is like the game of rugby itself, do the simple things well and the result will look beautiful and be effective. Working to IRB and IRFU standards, the artificial rugby pitch surface is laid to meet a 1.3 metres critical fall height. The 65mm pile height as recommended offers player satisfaction and safety for training and playing. The IRB standards for 'shock pad' as set out here in there regulation 22 are strictly enforced and observed by McSweeney's Construction team: http://www.irb.com/mm/document/lawsregs/0/regulation22080611_6080.pdf
Many Rugby Clubs and schools are considering investing in synthetic rugby pitch facilities for many reasons. Principally, training pitches cut up due to overuse in the winter months, and this can affect team performance. Serious clubs and coaches demand consistency from teams and players, and teams and players need consistent training facilities. McSweeney Sports Surfaces based in Limerick, a place often touted as Ireland's rugby capital, know and understand this. They are one of Ireland and the UKs leading artificial sports pitches installers.
