The rise of synthetic
turf has become a new trend among recreational facilities. According to Mike
Goatley Jr., president of Sports Turf Managers Association, “They are popping
up like dandelions.” With increasing participation of recreational events and
the growing popularity of sports such as soccer and lacrosse, many recreational
sports supervisors are finding it difficultto manage a natural grass field.
Many collegiate
recreational sports programs offer softball,
soccer, flag football, and ultimate Frisbee during a fall season. These
facilities may also host other events that produce ‘wear and tear’ on the
field. For example, at Tarleton State University the recreational
sports fields are also the site for band practices, track practices, youth
sports and much more.. In this case, there is not a lot of time for maintenance
on the fields. After a long fall semester of sports, the natural grass tends to
wear down and get torn up.
This leaves no feasible
option for the intramural complex but to use synthetic turf. According to the
article “Ground
for Innovation, Turf Trends for Today & Tomorrow’’
by Chris Gelbach in Recreation Management magazine, “artificial turf can
be used safely in inclement weather conditions, and allow for almost nonstop
use if lights are installed” (2013). With that said synthetic turf also drains
quicker with rain, making it more adaptable to the weather. Facilities without
synthetic turf, such as those at Tarleton State University, will experience
frequent loss of games (rainouts) due to improper drainage.
I love the idea of low maintenance of a turf field but when I was an athlete, getting used to a turf field at other school was a difficult task! Balls skip harder off of it, "turf beads" are a pain when you get home and you're covered in them, and just learning the difference ways a ball will move is difficult! But once you get used to it, there's nothing to complain about. I think turf fields are a great investment for any recreational facility; time, money, and labor will be saved!
ReplyDeleteI agreed with you, you are right artificial grass has low maintenance.
DeleteI really like that turf fields are becoming more common, especially for college recreation sports. While recreation staffs work extremely hard to maintain a proper playing surface, once a few softball games are played the infield can become a time bomb for bad hops. A turf field allows all players to have a true bounce off the field. While the speed of the ball will not slow down, players can still play the ball with confidence knowing they won't have to worry about a random hop to the face.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in High School, we got a turf field. For the first year or two it was kind of annoying having the little rubber pellets end up everywhere after you played on it. It became better after a while. I honestly liked it and was surprised when I heard they're now making turf lawns for residential use. That's something I have to look into a little more.
