Protect the Turf from Physical Damage
The Turf is a composite system consisting of synthetic grass fibers sewn into a mat. Between the fibers is a 1 ½ inch layer of small infill material of sand and olive pits. The infill makes the grass stand up and is also the critical cushion between the player and the stone base beneath the mat. Foreign objects pose physical risks to the turf fibers, the mat, and the rubber infill.
- Footwear is restricted to molded cleats (max 1/2"), turf shoes, or other soled athletic shoes such as cross-trainers or running shoes. Metal cleats or spikes are prohibited.
- Protect the turf surface from sharp or pointed edges of objects or equipment placed on the field. When goals or other equipment are moved, they should be picked up off the turf. Dragging goals, such as lacrosse goals and soccer goals will damage the turf.
- Allow no sharp objects that would penetrate the turf.
- All Physical Damage caused by negligence of the user will be charged to the user.
