Work starts on installation of new equipment at Horsham recreation ground

Horsham District Council will be one of the first councils in the country to install a Numuga – a multi-use games area with 10+ different sports available in the same space at the same time – at Roffey Recreation Ground off Leith View Road.

The works are set to start on Monday (February 12) and last for up to five weeks.

A council spokesperson said: “We are excited to be one of the first councils in the country to install a Numuga, an innovative collection of equipment which offers users the chance to play football, rugby, cricket, basketball, netball and tennis in one compact area.
