What is the poles height do we need for the football court?

The pole height recommendation for a 105x68m football stadium will depend on the level of illumination required, which is measured in lux. Here are some general recommendations for pole height based on different lighting levels:

1. Recreational level (50-100 lux): For a recreational level football stadium, where lower lighting levels are acceptable, pole heights of around 20-40 feet (6-12 meters) may be sufficient. This height will provide adequate illumination for casual games and training sessions.

2. Training level (100-200 lux): Optimal pole height for training sessions is 40-60 feet (12-18 meters) to meet higher lighting requirements.

3. Amateur level (200-300 lux): Recommended pole height for 200-300 lux is 60-70 feet (18-21 meters) for local team matches.

4. Professional level (500-1000 lux): For a professional level football stadium, where high-quality lighting is essential for broadcast and to meet league requirements, pole heights of around 90-120 feet (27-36 meters) may be necessary to achieve the required lighting level.

Pole height recommendations are general; the specific height depends on factors like fixture type, beam angle, and local regulations. It’s always best to consult with our professional lighting designer to determine the optimal pole height for your specific needs. Welcome to contact us via [email protected].

Frequently Asked Questions 

1.What is stadium lighting?
Stadium lights are powerful sports lighting fixtures typically mounted on tall towers or poles, designed with narrow beam angles ranging from 12 to 60 degrees. These smaller beam angles focus the light more intensely within the specified range, enabling bright and effective illumination of the sports ground from elevated heights. However, selecting the wrong beam angle can lead to uneven lighting across the field, creating dark spots that negatively impact the experience for both players and spectators.

2. Which lamp are used in stadium?
LED stadium lights are the best choice when compare to halogen lamps or mercury etc. LED to replace metal halides is more brighter, much more energy efficient and more durable.

3. How many lumens is per LED stadium light?
Most LED stadium lights are about 150-170lm/w, 600W LED stadium light is above 90,000 lm to replace a 1500 watt metal halide sports light, lumens is the amount of light from a fixture and differs from the light on the ground, known as footcandles.
