  • 3G All-Weather Football Pitch (Floodlit)

    Richard Challoner Sports Centre has installed a superb UEFA Grade A 3G Astroturf 7v7 football pitch which has been fully operational since late November 2013.

    Pitch Layout / Dimensions

    • Full Size Pitch 7v7 = 51m x 31m

    • Half Pitch = 31m x 25.5m

    • 1/3 Pitch = 15m x 30m (3 x 5-a-side pitches available)

    Goal Size / Dimensions

    • 7v7 Goal Size = 3.66m x 1.83m

    • 5v5 Goal Size = 3m x 1m

    The area can be divided into 3 small 5-a-side pitches by pulling across the net curtain which is weighted at the top and bottom to avoid the divider blowing around in the wind.

  • Outdoor Cricket Nets

    Our outdoor nets are also available for hire.

    Price available on enquiry per lane or all 3 lanes.

  • Sports Hall

    The Richard Challoner Sports Hall opened to the community in September 2007. Since then, it has become home to many clubs and groups.

    The Sports Hall is available to hire for various sports and activities including Basketball, Badminton, Cricket, Volleyball, Gymnastics and Karate.

    We do not allow football in the sports hall and this keeps it in very good condition. With the addition of the 3G pitch outside, we can ensure this continues.

    Richard Challoner Sports Centre has 4 fantastic highly maintained Badminton Courts and is the perfect place to improve your match game or just to play for fun with friends and family.

    We have recently had an extra 2 Cricket Nets installed (4 in total) to help promote our Cricket Academy which started at Richard Challoner in September 2013.
