Kestrel at the Women's Rugby World Cup

As specialist sports pitch sub-contractors, Kestrel helped to construct pitches used recently at the Women's Rugby World Cup at the University of Surrey in Guildford, UK.

Kestrel built the World Cup pitches as part of a larger development during 2008 and 2009, as sub-contractors to the main contractor Willmott Dixon.

The pitches form part of a fully drained 40,000sq m grass pitch area that also includes 10 football and rugby pitches as well as two cricket squares.

More than 8,000 people visited Guildford to watch the women's rugby pool phases and the flagship competition was heralded as a major success for Kestrel, Surrey Sports Park and the University of Surrey.

RFUW managing director Rosie Williams said: "The tournament was absolutely phenomenal. The venue had very, very high quality surfaces."
