Facilities
The Ground offers two floodlit artificial pitches, one primarily for hockey and the other mutli purpose. There is also one grass rugby pitch, one grass football pitch, a large grass training area, summer tennis as well as social and changing facilities based in our brand new pavilion.
The artificial pitches provide excellent floodlit training and five-a-side football facilities open to all King’s students and staff and a first class facility for the numerous College hockey teams, who play their home games on the pitches. We also continue to work with Stillness Junior and Infant Schools who use the ground on a regular basis, and welcome other local schools and sports clubs who would like to hire facilities at the Ground.
The recent addition of the artificial pitches have been a very welcome addition to the King’s College sports provision and with the new pavilion completed in March 2013 the Ground is already a source of pride for the whole College.
The ground is also is home for 2 well established alumni clubs: Guy’s Rugby club and King’s and Alleyn’s Hockey club, with both clubs encouraging King’s students to join.
