Facilities at RIASA.

 RIASA has access to Leeds Beckett’s synthetic all weather 3G pitch for training and competing. The floodlit 3G pitch is IRB regulation 22 approved and uses a rubber crumb surface. The pitch is a full size mens professional standard with team bench areas. This 3G pitch is located on the main campus and only a 30 second walk from the onsite accommodation.

*The location for RIASA may change from September 2023. In order to provide our students with the best possible state-of-the-art studying and football experience, we are seeking alternative location options, ideally in the same area as the current RIASA location in Leeds.  We will provide an update on the location as soon as possible.

 We also utilise Leeds Sports park Weetwood facility which offers a FIFA quality and World 22, 3G rubber crumb surface. This pitch is also all weather and floodlit all year round which makes training in the winter months a lot easier. 

Every year we try to arrange games where RIASA students get to experience what it’s really like playing on a professional surface. The big stands, the full size professional standard pitch and the emotion of the day will certainly stay in your memories for a long time. 

We want you to experience what it feels like playing high level soccer in the UK, and that’s why we always use the best facilities and high quality equipment,  from the footballs to the training props.
