MUGA Fencing: How Do You Choose the Right Type?

June 23, 2022 //  by Geoff

Many sports facilities in the UK host individual sports, and various fencing solutions are available to match the requirements of the sport. But now, another type of fencing is fast becoming quite popular on sports grounds in the UK and worldwide. It is now the UK’s gold standard in fencing, and they call it MUGA fencing. MUGA is the acronym for multiple-use games area, where a sports facility or sports ground incorporates several sports, allowing different athletes to play their sport within one facility simultaneously.

So, it is possible to play netball, football, basketball, tennis, and hockey simultaneously in a single place. However, choosing the correct MUGA fence is vital based on various factors.

  • Height. The fence height requirement differs, and the range available is from 2.4 metres to 5 metres. Typically, steel posts support the fencing material, with a rebound area that could be as high as 1.2 metres. Usually, the rest of the fence section uses another material. Consult with a professional installer, like RTC fencing, to know the recommended height of the fence based on the games the facility hosts.
  • Rebound area. You have two options for the rebound area of the fence. You can choose rebound boards, or you can go with rebound fences. Both types are practical, although rebound fencing comes out better. First, it provides more visibility, which is vital for viewing and security. Second, rebound fencing does not make too much noise, making it ideal for locations where the neighbourhood is close to the sports facility.
  • Kickboards. In some sports, the fencing will suffer from repeated impact of high-velocity balls. You can ensure that the MUGA fencing will last longer by installing kickboards around the playing area’s perimeter fencing. The quickest way to learn more is to visit a website on sports ground fencing, where descriptions and additional information are available.
  • Protection for posts and fencing. The fencing and posts will be exposed to the elements throughout the year. Thus, they need protection. Check with your sports ground fencing supplier if they can galvanise the materials. If you want to improve the fences’ aesthetic appeal, consider applying a coat of polyester powder, available in many colours.
  • Welded wire mesh or chain link. These types are suitable for MUGA fencing. The welded wire mesh has a higher-quality appeal, will last longer, and is more durable. On the downside, it is more expensive. Chain link fencing is cheaper, but it requires regular repair and re-tensioning, as it tends to sag from the impact of different types of balls and the rough handling of spectators. If you consider the maintenance cost of a chain-link fence, it might be more beneficial to your facility to consider investing in welded wire mesh.

When you are about to construct a sports pitch or thinking of installing sports ground fencing, ensure that you will have the most appropriate and durable fencing material. Even if the initial investment is higher, it might be more beneficial over time when you invest in quality and durability, not to mention the appealing aesthetics.
