“Following a robust tender and evaluation process Millfield School contracted Verde Recreo Limited to install two ACT Global Xtreme Turf hockey pitches with Musco LED lighting. Throughout the process we were consulted on every aspect of the contract, all timelines were met and in a number of cases exceeded expectation. The quality of workmanship was seen as of the highest order, combined with excellent quality assurance management and assessment. This has been confirmed with both pitches achieving the FIH Global accreditation. We have received some outstanding feedback from pupils, staff and visiting hockey teams on the pitch quality, LED lighting and pitch surroundings. We believe the facility can justly stand as a World Class Facility.”
