The islands of Tuvalu are narrow atolls composed of coral, so a football field could only be located at the broadest part of the main island of . The football field on Tuvalu is built on a base, with river clay shipped in from to create a surface on which grass has grown. This improved the football field's condition, although the surface remains hard and is not uniformly flat.
