Default Astro Turf

Does anyone know of any astro turf going free or cheap anywhere at the moment? We are based in the north west but can travel.

There USED to be a link on the BRCA website to a firm who offered it free to anyone who would collect. That was before the site was revamped into its latest format. Maybe someone who admins the site will have the details in an archive somewhere?

This is it... Dated 2008 though. I'll give em a try.

In 2008 we as a company supplied some old artificial grass ( astro turf ) to K.O.R.T in Cornwall, Mark said other clubs may be interested in some artificial grass to race on. We are about to take up approx 800m2 from a site near St Helens Lancashire. This grass is in very good condition and barely used.
If your club could use some quality second hand astro turf please contact me at [email protected]
Many Thanks

We want to get some on the straight at least. It deteriorated last year and became quite bumpy.

Good plan

If you need any advice just ask, we've laid plenty (of astro) over the last couple of years!
