Product overview
The Football Arena Roof Net, also known as a Sports Cover Net or Turf Cover Net, is a netting solution designed for overhead coverage in football arenas, artificial turf pitches, and enclosed sports facilities.
Measuring 60 metres by 10 metres, this net provides a total coverage area of 600 square metres, making it suitable for sports facilities requiring extensive overhead netting. Its 18-ply construction provides a multi-strand net structure intended for sports enclosure applications, where the net helps contain footballs within the designated playing area and reduce interruptions caused by balls leaving the pitch.
Overhead sports netting is particularly useful in urban football arenas, rooftop sports facilities, and enclosed artificial turf pitches where space is limited or surrounding properties need protection from stray footballs.
The Football Arena Roof Net is available at Afeef Maimun, providing football facility owners, sports contractors, schools, and recreational centres with a practical solution for overhead sports enclosure projects.
