FAS reply to Media Queries on the new Jalan Besar Stadium pitch.
Under the FIFA Goal Programme, which allows each member association of FIFA to receive funding for football development projects, Jalan Besar Stadium recently underwent re-turfing works to upgrade the pitch to a FIFA 2-star pitch. This new state-of-the-art turf has a cooler surface temperature as compared to the previous pitch.
FAS is pleased to upgrade the pitch under the FIFA Goal Programme, as football facilities are an important part of the FAS Strategic Plan, where we will always strive to ensure that our facilities, such as stadiums and training facilities, are of high quality.
