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

We install specialised artificial turf for cricket pitches, practice nets, training lanes, and multi-use school courts. These surfaces are engineered to withstand repeated foot traffic and high-velocity ball impact without degrading. Our installations provide a reliable, high-performance training environment that remains playable throughout the year.

Artificial cricket turf delivers consistent bounce and predictable ball roll with significantly less weather disruption. Synthetic wickets eliminate common natural grass frustrations like bare patches, muddy run-ups, and uneven surface wear. This ensures players can train on a professional-standard surface regardless of recent rainfall or heavy seasonal use.

Yes, artificial turf is the ideal solution for school cricket wickets and multi-sport play spaces. It supports intensive daily use by hundreds of students and requires zero recovery time between matches. This durability makes it a practical, cost-effective choice for busy school environments where natural grass struggles to grow.

Yes, our cricket turf systems are tailored to suit junior training, club practice, or high-intensity professional use. We adjust the fibre type and underlay selection to influence the speed and bounce of the ball. This bespoke configuration ensures the performance of the wicket aligns perfectly with the age and skill level of the players.

Artificial cricket turf requires only basic upkeep, such as keeping the surface clear of organic debris. Unlike natural grass, these surfaces never require mowing, watering, or expensive chemical treatments. Regular grooming and periodic checks help preserve the pile height and ensure the long-term performance of the pitch.

We deliver full cricket surface projects, including professional base preparation and precision turf installation. Our team can incorporate specialised nets, fencing, and custom training layouts into the final design. Every project is managed internally to ensure the site meets the exact technical requirements for competitive cricket.

The lifespan of a synthetic cricket surface depends on usage intensity and the quality of regular maintenance. Our turf is manufactured for extreme durability under regular play in New Zealand's harsh UV conditions. Following a simple care routine helps maximise the surface performance and protects your investment for many years.
