General
How High Should You Mount LED Soccer Field Lights?
There is no one height we would recommend. But higher is better than lower. And closer to the field is better than far away. We have created lighting plans for many outdoor sport fields. And the pole heights have ranged between 30 feet and 75 feet.
Do Portable Lights Work Well for Soccer Fields?
They can. But they could be a source of glare if the source of light is not high enough. Understanding how these LED Soccer Field Lights work, how each light needs to be aimed, creates a level of set up that is different from a fixed light source on a pole. So while they can work, it’s not ideal as a long term solution.
How many Foot Candles do I need?
Location | Ideal Light Levels in foot candles |

BEFORE YOU BUY
How Many Lumens Do You Need to Light Up a Soccer Field?
Start with the amount of light you want (in terms of foot candles). Create a lighting plan. The lighting plan will detail the number of lights, optics needed, and how powerful the lights need to be to meet your lighting requirements.
How Much Do LED Soccer Field Lights Cost?
We have a high power 200 Watt flood light that starts at $285.00. More powerful models are available if needed.
Are Flood lights or Stadium Lights Better for a Soccer Field?
We have found that high power flood lights work well when they’re mounted relatively close to the field. If the lighting positions are far from the playing field, stadium lights are a better option. They have low beam optic options like 10 and 15 degree optics.
Can You Provide a Lighting Layout for My Soccer Stadium?
Yes we can. Contact us today and we will create a free lighting plan specific to your requirements.
How Can I Avoid the Long Start Up Times That I Currently Have with Metal Halide?
LED Soccer Field Lights are instant on and instant off. So the light starts operating in full power within 1 second.
Are LED Soccer Lights Powerful Enough to Replace My Existing Lights, 1 for 1?
Yes, we can easily replace 400 Watt, 1000 Watt and even 2000 Watt metal halide.
FIXTURES AND FITTINGS
What Beam Angle Is Best for LED Soccer Field Lights?
There is no one best beam angle, but there is a best beam angle for your soccer field. That is why we recommend creating a lighting plan. We can determine the specific types of lights needed. And the ideal beam angle to create balanced lighting.
Do These Fixtures Qualify for Rebates?
They can. But that has more to do with the utility company supplying the power than our lights. Most of our lights are DLC qualified. But it’s up to the utility company to offer the rebate, and that varies from company to company.
How Long Will LED Soccer Field Lights Last?
Since LED Soccer Field Lights aren’t used all the time, it’s not unreasonable to think they can last 20+ years.
INSTALLATION
How Many Lights Do I Need to Light My Soccer Field?
Every field is different and has specific lighting requirements. The best way to determine how many lights you need is to start off with a lighting plan. And determine your field’s lighting requirements.
How Do You Install Lights on a Soccer Field?
There is no difference between installing our lights and any traditional metal halide light. Other than the fact that our lights are more compact and should weigh less. We offer all the same mounting types and hardware as older traditional lights. And there are only 3 wires to connect to the electrical service.
How Can We Get Rid of the Shadows on Our Field?
The goal with good lighting design is to have enough lights so that every part of the field is โtouchedโ with light. It is better to use 2 smaller powered lights than 1 large more powerful light. The latter scenario will create a bright area, then shadows until the next light’s bright area.
