Edel Aero dry training pitch at HC ’s-Hertogenbosch

Edel Grass, in collaboration with sports field specialists Finovi BV, has delivered a new milestone in dry hockey innovation by installing a dedicated Edel Aero Dry-to-Play™ training pitch at HC ’s-Hertogenbosch. This top-tier EHL winning  hockey club, international respected for its professional environment and elite-level teams, is now home to a pioneering practice pitch built entirely for use without needing water.

The installation of this pitch marks a significant moment in the evolution of sustainable hockey infrastructure. Due to its size and function the pitch is not subject to the regulatory constraints of the Dutch innovation program by NOC-NSF and KNHB. Built by Edel Grass and Finovi, the pitch is positioned as a flagship pilot representing a shared commitment of progress and innovation in professional hockey environments.

“We view this as an important opportunity to demonstrate Edel Aero’s real-world performance in a top-level training context,” according to Gijs Peters at Edel Grass. “The collaboration with HC ’s-Hertogenbosch reflects our joint ambition to lead the way in sustainable surface technology, and to make Dry-to-Play™ hockey a realistic and desirable future for clubs at every level.”
