FAQs
How is turf selected for a multisport field? A multisport surface should be selected around the sports that will use it and how often each activity takes place. Keystone reviews the facility’s usage to compare the needs of players and the way different balls interact with the surface. Fiber construction and system configuration can then be evaluated together. This process helps owners choose a field suited to their actual athletic program rather than assuming that every synthetic surface serves every sport equally well.
What should guide the selection of a synthetic turf system? The intended use of a surface should guide the choice of synthetic turf. A competition field, training area, and access area can place different demands on the material, so appearance alone is not enough to select a system. Keystone considers the activities planned for the space and the performance characteristics needed for that application. Discussing those requirements early helps match the turf to the facility and establish a clear scope for installation.
