German School Brooklyn - A Unique Soccer Experience in the Heart of Brooklyn

Perched above the busy streets of New York City, the rooftop at the German School Brooklyn now features a custom-built mini pitch that brings playtime to a whole new level. Designed and installed by SoccerGround, this elevated court transforms recess, gym class, and after school activities into an energizing sports experience right on top of the school building.

Safe and Durable Rooftop Design

Constructing a sports facility on a rooftop demands thoughtful engineering, and the SoccerGround system is built to meet that challenge. The mini pitch is enclosed with high fencing and rebound boards to ensure maximum safety, while the surface is designed for consistent, all-weather play. Whether it’s a casual game or an organized practice, the field holds up to heavy use while offering a professional feel.

Encouraging Activity and Community

For the students and staff at the German School Brooklyn, the pitch offers much more than a place to play. It’s a space for movement, teamwork, and joy, bringing students together in a healthy and engaging environment that supports both education and recreation. The rooftop court helps integrate physical activity into everyday school life without requiring extra space at ground level.

Soccer at the Top of the City

This installation shows how creative use of space can make sports more accessible, even in dense urban environments. The mini pitch at the German School Brooklyn stands as a great example of how schools can turn underutilized rooftops into inspiring, high impact play areas for young athletes and students alike.
