ATHREN FIELD · Hockey Facility Systems
Build the hockey field as a complete facility — not just a turf order.
ATHREN FIELD brings the hockey playing surface into a wider project pathway covering the field system, base and drainage interfaces, goals and perimeter, lighting, player and spectator infrastructure, operations and maintenance. The surface is selected around the required level of play and exact current system evidence; the surrounding facility package is coordinated around the site and operating brief.

Illustrative ATHREN FIELD facility concept. Final field system, infrastructure and certification pathway are project-specific.Field to facility
Resolve the field in the right order.
A hockey project works best when the playing requirement, civil interfaces and supporting infrastructure are considered before the product package is frozen.
Select the field system
Choose the appropriate dry, high-performance, club or shared-use surface pathway and confirm the exact turf, shockpad, seams, line marking and current evidence.
Coordinate the infrastructure
Resolve base, drainage, irrigation where applicable, goals, perimeter, ball-stop systems, lighting, shelters, seating, technology and maintenance access.
Freeze the supply brief
Confirm supplied products, technical documents, freight, local installation responsibilities, field testing and destination approvals before order.
Apollo supplies the agreed project package. Civil works, foundations, electrical work, local installation, field testing and statutory approvals remain separate project responsibilities unless expressly included.
Product details
Complete hockey facility building blocks
The final package depends on the field level, site and operating model. These are the project interfaces Apollo can coordinate around the selected ATHREN FIELD surface.
01Playing surface
Dry · Elite · Club · Community · Hockey5sThe exact turf and performance pathway are selected against current product/system evidence and the intended level of play.
02Shockpad / elastic layer
System-specificIncluded only where required by the tested construction or project brief; material, thickness and performance remain exact-system dependent.
03Base interface
Project-specific civil designSub-base, asphalt or other base construction, tolerances and falls must be resolved by the project team against the selected field system.
04Drainage
Surface + sub-surface strategyDrainage capacity, outlets, falls and local rainfall conditions are coordinated before the turf package is frozen.
05Irrigation
None / project-specificDry systems are reviewed separately from water-based hockey pathways. Any irrigation requirement must match the exact selected system.
06Goals & field equipment
Competition · club · trainingGoals, anchoring, storage and related field equipment are selected around the facility programme and applicable requirements.
07Perimeter & ball-stop
Fencing · gates · high ball-stop zonesHeight, mesh, gate positions, spectator separation and impact zones are planned around field geometry and neighbouring uses.
08Sports lighting
Project photometric designPole positions, optics, glare, uniformity, switching and operating levels are coordinated around the actual field and destination requirements.
09Players & officials
Shelters · benches · technical areasPlayer, official and equipment zones are coordinated with sidelines, access, safety clearances and field operations.
10Spectators
Bleachers · grandstands · accessible viewingSpectator capacity and format scale from small club seating to structural grandstand packages.
11Technology
Scoreboards · cameras · connectivityTechnology is scoped separately around competition, coaching, streaming, scoring and venue-operation requirements.
12Maintenance
Surface-specific programmeBrushing, cleaning, infill management where applicable, inspection and maintenance equipment must match the exact turf system.
13Supply model
Supply onlyApollo coordinates product supply and documentation; local civil, electrical, installation, testing and approval scopes are separated clearly.
Exact turf construction, shockpad, base requirements, drainage, irrigation, federation documentation, warranty and maintenance requirements are confirmed against the selected system before quotation. Surrounding facility products are also selected project by project. Apollo NZ Global is supply-only.

A complete-field brief reduces the gaps between the products.
Dry hockey pathway
Non-irrigated hockey is treated as its own performance pathway, not as a marketing variation of a conventional field. Exact current system evidence is confirmed before specification.
Certification stays attached to the exact system
Where FIH requirements apply, the supplier product, complete construction and finished-field pathway are checked individually. ATHREN branding does not replace or transfer certification.
Base and drainage come before turf
A premium surface cannot correct unsuitable levels, drainage or civil construction. The field platform is resolved before the surface package is finalised.
Infrastructure is planned with the field
Goals, fencing, lighting, shelters, spectators and technology influence clearances, underground services, access and operations, so they should not be treated as late add-ons.
Schools and clubs can stage the project
Core field works can be prioritised first, with seating, technology, larger spectator infrastructure or other amenity systems staged where the site and budget allow.
International supply remains practical
Freight, packing, receiving, local installer capability, documentation and destination requirements are considered before the package is released for manufacture.
