The Pitch
Grimsby Town groundsman Gordon Greengrass is trying to work out how far he walks when painting the white lines on the pitch.

Can you help him work it out?

1. What is the perimeter of the outside edge of the pitch?

2. What is the perimeter of the two penalty areas?

3. So how far must Gordon walk? (and don't forget to include the half way line!)

4. The outside edge of Wembley's pitch is 110m long and 60m wide - what is its perimeter?

5. By how many metres is the Wembley Pitch Perimeter longer than that of Grimsby Town?
