When Mount St Mary's College chose Champion floodlights for their Grade 1 Athletics Stadium, they made a choice that helped them gain selection as an official London 2012 Pre-Games Training Camp Facility.

The centre, near Sheffield, with its impressive 6-lane athletics track, rugby pitch and field events area, has a number of uses, from a daily school programme for 11-18 year olds to the hosting of national teams and training camps. The lighting needed switching to meet the different sports and competition levels being played as well as achieving strict light control.

Electrical contractors, R.J. Thompson International Ltd of Worksop, were responsible for the complete installation, which comprises of 36 Champion 2kW floodlights, mounted on eight Stainton 20m hinged raise and lower columns.
