Her presence at our opening event highlights the significance of this new facility in supporting girls’ rugby, football, and other sports at Kingsley and in the wider North Devon community.

The Grenville Pitch: A Game-Changer for Kingsley & Beyond

The Grenville Pitch is Kingsley School’s latest investment in year-round sports and recreation, offering a FIFA and World Rugby-approved playing surface that ensures uninterrupted training and matches, whatever the weather.

This facility will enhance Kingsley’s sports programmes while also benefiting community clubs, including Romar Sports, the North Devon Development Centre, and Bideford Rugby Club, providing over 400 young athletes with access to top-quality training and match facilities each week.
