Reply to "High School Turf Fields"

Hahaha... I'm guessing most of these are privates. I just plopped down $30 for more sandbags so we can keep our mound and plate tarps from blowing off the field. The bags have to be positioned just right to cover the holes in the tarps blush Usually not that big of a deal here in Calif. but after just one rainstorm during all of October thru late February (resulted in Montecito floods after the fires), March is looking to be really wet.

Maybe I shoulda just put a down payment on a turf field. Ya think $30 would have got 'em started?

Seriously, though, I would like to see a long term cost analysis of turf vs natural, factoring in some logistics costs with lost/rescheduled games, etc. ...although Fred's starting numbers are probably a conversation killer for 98% of schools.
