Recreational football games are typically played in the evenings, making proper lighting essential to ensure that as many people as possible can participate. While the lighting may not be as bright as that seen in televised matches, it is important that the quality of the lighting is still maintained to provide a uniform and visually comfortable environment. This is especially crucial in residential areas where leisure sports facilities are commonly found, as excessive or poorly placed lighting can be disruptive to the surrounding community.
These facilities are typically independent structures located in residential neighborhoods, and they often have limited or no seating for spectators. When designing lighting for events that will not be televised, it is important to ensure that the playing surface is evenly illuminated regardless of the placement of the poles. The poles should be strategically positioned away from the players' line of sight, taking into consideration their alignment with the goal lines and touch lines.
