Guidance for a new brief

Planning a multi-zone sports venue.

Field and adjacent courts.

Define the pitch, track and court areas separately, including the edges and neighbouring spaces where spill light matters.

Glare and sightlines.

Review player, spectator and any camera positions before deciding aiming directions. Pole positions and height belong in the lighting brief.

Output and optical distribution.

Compare distribution against mounting distance and the intended area, rather than selecting a fixture by wattage alone.

Design guidance for a comparable new project.

Selection notes.

For a new multi-zone venue, compare the bracket-mounted MY-OL-SLD and modular MY-OL-FLD families against the mounting layout and optical brief.

Linked families are options for a new brief.

Project planning questions.

Should the field and nearby courts share one layout?

Define their target areas and operating requirements separately, then assess how the lighting works across the venue as a whole.

How are lighting targets set for a new design?

A new design needs its own agreed targets and verification.
