School astro turf facility will boost sports for students

Major investment in facilities

- 

THE Queen's School in Chester is ready to unveil a state-of-the-art astroturf facility this summer, ushering in a new era for both the school and community sports.

With a strong focus on hockey, the new pitch, located on the school's former playing fields below the historic Roman Walls, will provide students with access to professional-grade facilities.

It will also serve as a valuable resource for local clubs and teams, enhancing grassroots participation and sporting opportunities throughout the region.

This major investment reflects the school's ongoing commitment to sport and PE.

The Queen's School has a proud history of sporting excellence, particularly in hockey, having reached the Tier Two National Finals for three consecutive years and competed at the Indoor National Finals.

It also supports girls playing at club, county, and national levels.

This new facility will elevate that legacy by offering a professional-grade training environment where all students can develop their skills and compete at the highest level.
