Pitch marking and field equipment

Preparing a playing field starts with clear boundaries and suitable equipment. This category includes temporary boundary tapes, line-marking machines and paint, plus team benches. Portable boundaries and painted lines serve different needs; choose by surface and frequency of use.

How to choose

For tape, calculate all sides and internal markings, not just the field length. Compare nominal length, anchoring method and included parts. For marking machines, check application method, line width and tank capacity; these vary between models.

What to check before ordering

Check whether paint is included or sold separately, its equipment compatibility and the surface it is intended for. Kilograms of paint are not equivalent to litres of tank capacity. For team benches, confirm seat count, dimensions, materials and the quoted configuration.

Use and precautions

Follow the exact product's dilution, cleaning and storage instructions. Install boundaries and benches as directed, avoiding protruding components in the playing area. A tape's maximum stretched length must not be confused with its nominal length.

Frequently asked questions

Does every line-marking machine include paint?

No. Some are sold alone and others as kits; check the exact delivery contents.

Is a boundary tape with pegs suitable for every pitch?

No. The anchoring method must suit the surface and the venue's usage rules.

Does a team bench have a standard configuration?

It depends on the product. For made-to-order models, confirm configuration, price and lead time before ordering.
