Absolute gamechanger.... so happy with the result and especially Tim and the team as before I could even push go they had the whole body corporate to deal with to prove how good there product and instalation was.

The key for me initially to go with GameOn was the grass quality being so much better than what any of the other competitors offered as a mate recommended them after I saw the job they did for him as his product sits much better ( I have done two other properties before and after a year or so you really notice the product quality).

So that was cool but how they did the job and how efficient and there attention to detail on top of this is what really impressed me as it was way above what I experienced the two times and so why I wrote this review.

Highly recommend

Had the boys install my turf and can’t complain. The lads transformed my sorry state of a grass lawn to an artificial lawn which looks as good as the real stuff. The lads were very professional from start to finish and cleaned up as they went. Would highly recommend these guys to anyone wanting some artificial grass laid. The grass I got was the classic 45. Very happy with everything, A+++

Amazing service from Lelane and the Team! They helped us transform an animal rescue enclosure and can't recommend them enough!

Thank you Game On turf for your delivery and installation of our 6 astroturf tennis courts at Rotorua Tennis Club. It was so great to have such good communication throughout the process and the team worked tirelessly, in challenging weather, to get this job done to a high standard. It is a rare treat to have such good forward planning and to have the team arrive exactly when they say they will despite travelling a fair distance to reach our club. The after sales service has also been wonderful and we have really appreciated the support from Bevan and his team following the install. The crew treated our club with respect and we were totally at ease to leave them with full access during their stay in Rotorua.
I would thoroughly recommend Game On turf as a supplier/installer for any sports club. They have made a big job seamless.

Their response time to any communication was excellent. They were the first to visit the school site and discuss the proposal. Our communication was with Tim McIntosh and this was always prompt and clear. We contacted other organisations that had worked with GameOn Turf to get info on the criteria above. All references were very positive. GameOn Turf were open to any changes in the plan, but were also very clear about deadline dates for the design etc. The workmen who laid the turf were independent and completed the project well. They had to problem solve some issues, which they did and kept me informed. I can recommend GameOn Turf based on the work that Maunu School had done.
Paul Shepherd, Principal - Maunu School
A big thank you to Game On Turf for the installation of our new turf. This has been a great result for the community with our sports teams actively training on the turf each day. Our six Saturday Netball Teams have grown to Ten Teams since the installation. I am sure the turf was a part of the decision to play for the school. Tim and the team were great to work with, plenty of communication and sharing of ideas. The visual result speaks for itself.
Thank you for supporting our dream and enabling us to develop the sporting talent within our school and local community.
Glen Ryan, Principal - St. Anne's School
Big thank you to the Game on Turf team, especially Bevan, Fraser and Karl who travelled all the way to Gisborne to install it. The turf looks incredible, especially with the running track on the outside. And our students find any excuse to play on it at all times. Awesome team to deal with – and would highly recommend to anyone! Ngā mihi

frequently asked questions

Yes, artificial turf is a premier choice for early learning centres because it provides a clean, stable play area. It replaces messy bark or hard surfaces with a soft, inviting environment for daily activity. Our designs focus on creating a safe space that supports both structured play and exploration.

Artificial turf helps centres maintain a mud-free outdoor environment regardless of the New Zealand weather. Key benefits include:

  • Improved Hygiene: The surface is easy to clean and does not harbour pests like bark or sand.
  • Reduced Wear: Synthetic fibres withstand the constant movement of children without thinning.
  • Low Upkeep: You eliminate the need for mowing and the regular topping up of loose-fill materials.

Yes, we can install specialised shock-absorbing underlays to meet critical fall-height requirements. These safety pads provide essential cushioning beneath the turf, making it ideal for play equipment areas. Every configuration is site-specific to ensure it complies with national safety standards.

Maintenance is minimal and focuses primarily on basic hygiene and debris removal. You save significant time by removing the need for irrigation and mowing. Routine inspections and an occasional wash-down with water keep the playground looking fresh and safe for children to use.

Yes, we can incorporate a variety of colours, shapes, and interactive play graphics into the playground layout. This flexibility allows us to create creative concepts that stimulate children’s imagination. We tailor the design to suit your centre’s branding and educational goals.

Artificial turf remains usable during damp weather, ensuring the playground is never closed due to mud. Our advanced drainage systems allow water to pass through the surface and away from the play area. This reliable water management keeps students active throughout the winter months.

Playground turf is engineered for extreme durability and typically lasts many years under high-use conditions. We use UV-stabilised materials to ensure the surface remains resilient in the New Zealand sun. Professional installation and simple upkeep are the keys to supporting the longevity of the turf.
