Astro and grass pitches at Purbeck Sports Centre

Boasting some of the best outdoor facilities in Purbeck we have a full sized artificial grass pitch used for football and hockey, a rugby pitch, two full sized football pitches and a cricket square, all with use of our indoor changing rooms and use of the free car park.

Astro Football/Hockey Pitch

The astro pitch can be used as a full size football/ hockey pitch, or can be divided into 3 mini pitches for small-sided games or training. The pitch can be hired by groups or teams by the hour. Ideal for regular training sessions, tournaments or just a kick about with a group of mates. Due to the current Coronavirus Pandemic and COVID-19 Safety measures we have in place we are currently only making our facilities available to organised clubs with risk assessments in place.

There is a very successful Dorset County Football Association affiliated adult 6-a-side football league on Tuesday evenings, with Premier, Championship and League One divisions. Please contact Bob Kitley of Soccer Solutions for further information.
