Alexander Stadium's 3G (third generation) pitch is an outstanding artificial turf for teams to use for a whole host of elite sports.
Our 3G Pitch
The 3G pitch at Alexander Stadium opened in July 2024 adding another elite sporting facility to the stadium's impressive athletics portfolio. The 3G pitch mimics natural grass in terms of ball bounce and roll and provides reliable performance and safety. This makes it ideal for all-year-round use in different sports.
The pitch is fully floodlit and can be accessed from either the GMAC or new stadium West Stand until new dedicated team changing rooms are installed.
Located on the warm-up track infield, the 3G pitch can be utilised for:
- Full-size football
- Small-sided football (3 pitches available crossways)
- Rugby union
- Rugby league
- Other sports markings can be considered on request.
