The field at our school, MCG, where we play football during recess, just received a facelift. Now we have an artificial turf instead of grass. It’s such a fun thing to play on, and I wanted to get more into it. So, I dug around and learned some interesting things.
An artificial turf football field has numerous advantages that are hard to ignore. One reason is that it is much easier to maintain than a grass field. You don’t have to water it quite as much, and you don’t have to worry about it getting all muddy when it rains. This means we get to play on it more often too, even in bad weather.
And artificial turf is softer than grass, so we may be is better protected. "On the grass we start one minute and sometimes we sit in places we slip, fall because the floor is not even. But on the artificial turf, there is a flat ground, and we can run around and that, and we not thinking about we run and we had and ball and we can fall down.
The way things are heading in the world of football and what artificial turf is doing is pretty phenomenal. Professional football has been using artificial turf for a fair amount of time now because it allows them to play faster. The ball whizzes up and down the field, so players must be fleet of foot to keep pace. This adds more excitement to the game and it becomes harder to play.
Artificial Turf Leagues becomes more and more popular with football teams for the numerous advantages that they have to offer. They need less care and are safer to play on, and they last longer than fields of grass. This does mean, however, that schools and communities are not having to shell out thousands of dollars every few years to replace the field, which can add up to huge savings in the long run.
The impact of landscape artificial grasss on the environment is something people discuss. And some worry about the materials that comprise artificial turf and how they affect the environment. Today, a lot of organizations are now using recycled materials in the production process to make the turf which is a good thing since it reduces waste and makes the products more environmentally friendly.
It’s cool to learn about the technology behind artificial turf. Are you aware of the fact that fake grass is simply different layers of various materials, including rubber, synthetic fibers? These layers are intended to have a texture similar to real grass; at the same time, they have to be tough enough for a football field. And there are little rubber particles whose added bounce to the turf adds to the fun of running and jumping on it.
