Sports Turf Company was born in 1991 to provide premier natural grass fields in an underserved segment. Committed to improving and evolving, today Sports Turf can build clients high-quality natural grass fields that can perform on par with artificial turf in terms of safety, drainage, traffic, and aesthetics. These fields feature:

What to Consider When Converting to Artificial Turf
Synthetic turf systems are evolving to safer, more durable and higher performing systems to compare to premier natural grass fields. While natural grass systems are king in the athletic facility world, when field managers, coaches and schools are faced with the conversion to synthetic turf it’s essential, they are informed about the latest technology and nuances.
ARTIFICIAL TURF
Sports Turf Company strives to bridge the gap between natural grass and artificial turf fields in safety, performance and playability. We believe in synthetic turf systems that closely replicate natural grass in safety, look and function. These systems utilize:
- A dense, three fiber turf system for a firm and durable surface
- Organic, sustainable infills to dramatically reduce field temperatures
- Shock pad technology specifically engineered to optimize safety for athletes during impacts to the surface reducing concussions and lower extremity injuries

“Joel Thornton was assigned as the superintendent for the job. We were very pleased with the professional way Joel dealt with us. He is a hands-on superintendent but takes the time to be very personable. I was most impressed with the way he dealt with the small details and how he would go out of his way to assist the district with things out of the scope of his contract.”

“Our new turf baseball field has been the asset to our program we had anticipated. The investment made in our facility to transition from grass to a complete artificial turf field has resulted in, to use baseball terms, “save after save.” It has saved our team’s ability to practice during or after inclement weather. It has saved our teams ability to play more games as rainouts are a rare occurrence. It has saved our coaches and players time and effort as there are no more early mornings rolling out the tarp, no more staying after practices and games to manicure the infield, We absolutely love it.”
