KILSYTH PRIMARY SCHOOL

Kilsyth Primary school didn’t have a huge amount of spare ground and so the flexibility of the KOMPAN MUGA system together with our creative design team managed to create a practical and useable space for lots of children to participate in lots of different sport and leisure activities.

The MUGA is 17m x 30m, it has 3m high goal ends and 1m sides. The court needed to be very robust and quiet with the proximity to houses. The specification therefore was for an all-steel construction with HDPE backboards at each end. For larger groups, the court features basketball goals and football goals with escape hatches. Games can be played across court for smaller groups with mini goals and adjustable height basketball goals.

A polymeric surface in blue with lining out in various colours for different games really brings the facility to life and the children can really feel like they are proper sports stars playing in this arena! Surrounding the court, KOMPAN designed a four-lane running track which incorporates a short sprint track, perfect for school sports days and regular gym classes. No more dirty feet coming back into the school after playtime.

The contract build took 6 weeks with work taking place over the summer holidays, the project was delivered on time and to budget. The MUGA court facility supports health, fitness and fun memories for many generations of children at Kilsyth Primary School and KOMPAN Scotland have been delighted to have been chosen to deliver it.
