It looks fantastic. I also wonder how it plays, though.

Here're links to a tutorial I posted recently on how I built my pitch. Not quite as fancy or, frankly, stunning as some of the examples here, but it works. Also, I can hang it up on the wall!

Let me know what you think!

After many years of dreaming about it, and lurking on the web, I actually did it. Inspired by many, and helped by a few, I made this. There´s still some few issues, especially a lack of spectators. If you got any funny minis, that would fit into my pitch, please give me a heads-up.
Here goes:

Decorating the box is next.
It was used last weekend for the Danish Masters.

Cheers!

Looks amazing!

I particularly like the way it folds up.

Starting to think I have a new project when we move house.

Epic folding pitch. Have you any work in progress pics/blogs?

Wonderful. All the little details really make it sing.

For more crowd options check out the Hasslefree villagers. Characterful and no need to convert.

Not a stadium, but this is the pitch signed by every player at the most recent POW Town event. Every player received a pitch for participating

Very nice stuff here!

Here's my contribution, a two-part (60x40 cm) transportable pitch.

Great pitch! Neat trick with the magnetised bases as counters as well.

That's a very elegant transportable board, lots of nice touches there.

I take it the scoreboard also holds the two halves of the pitch together while it's in use?

Thanks for the comments!

If I had looked the boards on this thread earlier I could have stolen some ideas, but no can do :P

The other board half side has two supermagnets and the other has two pieces of thin steel. Half of the arrangement can be seen in upper left hand corner of the third picture. These are sufficient to hold the board together. Scoreboard is just an attachment (team logos can be attached to either side of the coreboard next to numbers).
