Sports Turf and Field Turf....................Big Difference!!!!:lol:

When I was there two years ago I thought Highlands' turf looked more like a basement carpet.

I didn't necessarily mean it was bad; you could just see some wear and tear. It had a different appearance than some of the other fields I've seen, but perhaps that's its age showing.

The field turf Highlands installed is actually a better product than the fields most schools are installing today. It has both, a rubber and sand base. Most fields installed today just have the rubber base. Also, this field does not become slippery when wet!!! A big plus.

 

Yes, the field looks a tad worn. That is due in large part to its exposure to the sun and other outdoor conditions after 7+ years, but better, due to all the many uses the field has provided to the youth of Ft Thomas! :thumb:

 

Are metal cleats sill street legal on grass fields?

I've never been to a Highlands game!

 

Me either and I can't wait to go this weekend. :clap::clap:
