INTERNATIONAL HOCKEY FEDERATION
FIH Certified Installed Pitches
This is a list of pitches which have been tested by FIH accredited laboratories and found to meet the specified requirements.
Until April 2008 the requirements were included in the March 1999 edition of the FIH Handbook of Performance Requirements for Synthetic Turf Hockey Pitches incorporating Test Procedures . In accordance with those requirements the main two categories of turf and pitch were called "global" and "standard". In addition, there was a "starter" category, but that has not been withdrawn.
From April 2008 the requirements were included in the April 2008 edition of the Handbook of Performance Requirements for Synthetic Turf Hockey Pitches also known as The Pitch Handbook . In that publication the "standard" category was renemed "national" so that the main two categories of turf and pitch are now known as "global" and "national". An additional "multisport" category has been added in accordance with the new Pitch Handbook published in May 2013. If floodlights are installed and tests show they meet requirements in the FIH Guide to the Artificial Lighting of Hockey Pitches, the list states that pitch approval applies to "use in natural light and floodlights". If floodlights are not installed and/or have not been tested, the list states "floodlights not installed/approved".
A Certificate of Compliance lasts for two years.
Any enquiries about this list and the performance requirements should be addressed to the FIH Sport Coordinator at: [email protected]
