Project Summary
Keystone Sports Construction recently completed a synthetic turf replacement for Field 2 at The Proving Grounds in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania.
The Client
The Proving Grounds is a regional sports complex in Conshohocken that hosts tournaments, leagues, and team rentals. The complex is also home to Villanova University’s women’s field hockey team, which plays on a dedicated water-based turf field.
The Challenge
Replacing Field 2 required recovery of existing infill, grading of the stone base, and inspection of the anchoring components before installing the new turf. The replacement layout also needed to accommodate the field’s multiple sports.
Construction Process
The project was initiated with the removal and disposal of existing turf, along with reclaiming and recycling the existing infill. The existing stone base was then graded. Keystone then installed Momentum Pro synthetic turf for the field.
