Sefton has three rugby pitches that are maintained throughout the year. currently two of those pitches are equipped with full pitch flood lights and there are plans to get the third pitch flood lit too. Sefton's 1XV pitch has had a lot of time and money invested into it, In 2010 receiving a drainage system to help prevent any waterlogged games. The pitch also has a stand for supporters/substitutions/coaches which all-in-all makes this pitch possibly the best in the league.
