    Please give me a list of AstroTurf pitches available to the public in Dublin, and any information you can give me on them too!
    I have looked at UCD,Newtownpark School and looking AstroPark but they are all booked solid apart from weekends!

    Dublin council have the 5 a side astro pitches in some of their leisure centres, theres one in finglas and one in ringsend and others on southside i think. they only charge 45euro an hour compared to 60+euro in astropark. check out your local council website or the phonebook for details

    Do you think you could play contact rugby (training) on this?
    What's the surface like?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,485 ✭✭✭✭Khannie


    There's one in Skerries. Might be a bit far out for you. Contact the community centre for booking.

    edit: Just spotted that this thread is over 2 years old. I'll leave it go though....the contact rugby question is general enough....

    There's great new facilities open in Ballyfermot next to the gym...

    I should think not.I have only played some soccer on astro-turf and sliding on it is quite painful.I really wouldn't recommend even playing tag-rugby in it.

    Just wondering if anyone knows any contact details of large astro pitches in the Dublin area.... been scowring the net but can only find the "astro-park" franchised pitches which are kinda for under 5-a-side, preferably I would be looking for a 7/8 a side pitch, cheers

    Try here, they are great pitches but you will be lucky, usually booked out months in advance.

    Looking for an astro pitch for 5 a side on a Thursday evening somewhere close to city centre? Or a list of pitches? I tried SportsCo in Ringsend but they were all booked up.

    Cheers
