Musco lighting up the cricket world cup

The Cricket World Cup is the latest prestigious event to employ Musco Lighting's sports floodlighting.

Beausejour Stadium, St Lucia, was the first cricket arena in the Caribbean to install floodlights.

The installation took place in May 2006 and included six 40m high lighting columns with a total of 232 fixtures, creating 2000 lux on the wicket as required for televised viewing.

Beausejour hosted the Group C matches where New Zealand and England took the top two positions in the group.

The 3Ws Oval Stadium, Bridgetown, is home to The University of West Indies and the Musco system there was installed in June 2006 as part of the redevelopment of the ground to meet ICC standards for international cricket.

The stadium hosted four warm-up matches for the World Cup between the 5th and 9th March. After the Cup the Oval will be a lasting legacy to the University and is hoped will encourage the development of cricket at youth level.
