Our putting green at the CC is astroturf. Ball doesn't roll like on the froghair.

I'm sure the new locker room improved the s.a.t. scores of the school too....lol
One selling point they are using is bringing more kids to the district.....
$57 million for how many new students exactly?
But anywho..
You played tennis on this turf.
Is it the same stuff they are putting on football fields? I would think the ball wouldn't bounce on a football field to well but I've never been on one either.
bit of both, the first generation astro turf was dangerous, would really cut you unlike grass, infections not so much of a thought, but playing on real grass is my preference, every time.

Just a preference or is it about injuries and infections?

My friends that play football always complain about it. They tell me they had to get different shoes to play on it. But that is not firsthand experience.
As far as the field house goes, back in the day our city did the same exact thing. The fieldhouse was mainly used for botany.
personally i know exactly what the OP is talking about, and the different types of astro turf, I hate them all, give me a moist grass pitch any day over that crap, you could tone down the arrogance as well, no need for it in a discussion about fake grass lol
