New All-Weather Sports Pitch Opens at Regents
Regents’ new pitch the latest project to be completed as part of the school’s ‘Big Investment’
On Tuesday 12 January 2016 the gates to our new all-weather pitch will open to students and staff for the first time. The 53m x 33m covered pitch (‘Astroturf’) is the only facility of its kind available at an international school on the Eastern Seaboard of Thailand and will provide a top quality playing surface for children of all ages, both boarding and day students.
The new pitch is located adjacent to the air-conditioned double sports hall, all-weather running track and outdoor swimming pool, providing the school community with a ‘sports village’ to enjoy during the week. It also expands our options for after-school and weekend activities, such as the ever-popular Saturday Sports Academy.
The pitch is the latest project in Regents ‘Big Investment’ in facilities. Since September 2012, Nord Anglia Education has invested almost USD $ 8 million to provide Regents’ students with world class facilities. Investment continues with work having begun already on a new learner pool for students aged 2 to 5, which will be open by 1 May 2016.
