Cricket Mat USA

Here’s our top 5 reasons why the 2G Flicx Pitch is the best cricket pitch mat in the USA … we receiving a number of enquiries from the United States and Canada each week for our versatile, roll out, portable cricket pitch solution with some of the key benefits being

1. It performs really well on artificial surfaces & can convert a grass or baseball field into a cricket venue

The 2G Flicx Pitch performs really well on a number of surfaces … these includes those found readily in the states including rubbercrumb pitches. By rolling a Flicx Pitch on top of this surface, you can convert the field into a cricket arena. We have also found a lot of clubs playing on baseball parks by laying our roll our wicket on top of the diamond as seen in the All Stars Series organised by Shane Warne and Sachin Tendulkar http://cricketallstars2015.com/

Any flat, hard under surface will produce a great consistent bounce with a 2G Flicx Pitch including on a grass pitch as pictured below with the Utah Lions CC. Preparation of a grass field is minimal, you just need to cut it down short then roll the pitch on top. Rolling it will help bed the pitch in and clients have been reporting that the standard of their game and the players skills has increased hugely.

2. Selling advertising space can fund your pitch

Several customers in America have been leading the way in using the 2G Flicx Pitch as an advertising source by charging sponsor a premium for their logo to have a prominent position on their new wicket. One customer who purchased 2 pitches, managed to get 4 different sponsors on board. These logos were sprayed on, however now Flicx offer a very high quality digital print on all pitch branding.

3. The Dollar-Pound exchange rate makes purchasing a 2G Flicx Pitch very attractive for US clubs

With the weakening of the British Pound against the USD, it has made the price of the Flicx Pitch that much cheaper to purchase.. Flicx UK has decided not to increase prices in 2016/17 and thus while the British Pound is at its lowest level for 35 years you will in effect find you will be saving between 18- 20% .

4. The growth of American College Cricket 

Cricket as a sport is becoming more and more popular in the states and leagues such as American College Cricket (ACC) have been on the rise. Populous centers, such as New York, now have over 100 teams across 4 different state leagues. Since the advent of American College Cricket in 2009, over 70 colleges, including Harvard, have developed teams. Some games have been hosted on hockey fields since building a full cricket field is very expensive but now more and more clubs are turning to drop in or roll out pitches in order to convert any field into a cricket field and create a more authentic match. (Read the Harvard Case Study)

5. Longevity

The 2G Flicx Pitch is designed to last and can perform for well over 10 years (in fact we have pitches from our launch back in 1997 still going strong!! Whilst a choir mat can be used to host cricket these generally only last a season or two and therefore the cost effectiveness of the 2G Flicx Pitch is far superior giving your club value for money and a surface that will perform season after season. PLUS the Flicx provides a realistic playing surface against the inconsistency and irregularity of the ball bounce off other cheaper surfaces!
