Raith Rovers pitch looking great ahead of two Stark's Park friendlies
Ahead of a Stark’s Park friendly double header against Hamilton Accies and Edinburgh City over the next few days, the newly laid state-of-the-art playing surface at the Kirkcaldy ground is looking magnificent.
Ongoing work this summer has seen the ageing, decade-old original 3G pitch dug up and replaced by the new Greenfields 'MX Elite' synthetic surface.
The work has been undertaken by Professional Sportsturf Design (PSD) Scotland and Sportex.
Raith fans will get the chance to see their heroes play on the new pitch for the first time in this Saturday’s home friendly against Accies in a 1pm kick-off and in another Stark’s Park friendly contest versus City in a 7.30pm kick-off next Tuesday, June 30.
The serious stuff begins on Saturday, July 11 when Raith host Elgin City in their first Group H match in the Premier Sports Cup.
