Pitch Sizes By Age Group
The pitch sizes given below are considered “ideal” but are not absolute. They should be adjusted to the field conditions. The chart gives a summary. Layouts follow.
Full size field dimensions can vary quite a bit, from a pitch intended for U-14 rec up to one for U-19 Class I. If you are charged with lining a field, go to Lining A Field for some helpful hints.
See Field Setup And Take Down for information on these procedures.
