With a growing population we need to not only deliver more green field spaces to meet the needs of the community sport and recreation use but also maximise the carrying capacity of existing sports fields. However, there are challenges for Councils to delivering and managing these spaces to make them suitable for play all year round.
Join us on World Soil Day (WSD) 2024 as we delve into this important discussion surrounding how to design and maintain grass sports fields to keep them open more weeks of the year so people can be more active more often.Â
Hear from the team at SPORTENG as they delve into design considerations in constructing grass sports fields for community use with an insight into short and long-term design thinking and cost considerations. And let maintenance experts Green by Nature walk you through some of the lessons learnt in turf management, and why choosing the right type of grass is important in maximising use throughout the year and keeping fields suitable for play for longer.
