Natural Turf Versus Artificial Turf Sports Fields
[ send me this paper ]
This 16 page report discusses the benefits and controversies that exist in the sports world regarding artificial and natural turf playing fields. In the big money realm of professional sports, playing surfaces are generally chosen and maintained on the basis of what is the most cost effective and least problematic. Concerns regarding aesthetics, the “feel” of the surface, and personal preference of the players have been thought of as secondary, even tertiary, concerns. However, a huge number of injuries have been directly blamed on artificial turf and have resulted in key players being kept out of a game or even put on the injured list for an entire season. This report examines a number of those concerns and looks at potential alternatives. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
