Sports Turf Company, a specialty sports construction and surfacing company, is proud to announce it has completed the artificial turf field and track renovation project for three Whitfield County High Schools.
The three Whitfield County projects included:
- Coahulla Creek High School in Dalton, GA
- Northwest Whitfield High School in Tunnel Hill, GA
- Southeast Whitfield High School in Dalton, GA
Sports Turf Company renovated all three high schools’ existing natural grass fields to artificial turf systems that surpass other systems in terms of safety, durability, and performance. The artificial turf system features AstroTurf’s 3D Decade System, Brock shock pad and organic BrockFILL infill. AstroTurf’s Decade system is performance artificial turf system that combines slit film and nylon monofilament fibers with a RootZone layer of texturized fibers for optimum durability and better shock absorbency. The Brock shock pad and BrockFILL are specifically engineered to optimize safety for athletes during impacts to the surface. BrockFILL is the latest in organic infills and is sustainably grown and harvested in Georgia.
“We are excited to see all three track and field renovations completed for the Whitfield County School System,” said Sports Turf Company President Todd Wiggins. “The artificial turf system installed encompasses technology that far surpasses other systems in the industry. We’re confident that the players, coaches, and administrators will notice the difference in terms of footing, heat reduction, and the players’ impact with the surface.”
In addition to the field renovation, Southeast Whitfield and Northwest Whitfield High School’s running tracks were cleaned and restriped, while Coahulla Creek High School received a full track renovation. The existing surface for the Colts was removed and resurfaced with Rekortan M synthetic surface. Rekortan M is a World Athletics-certified, impermeable system featuring two distinct layers. This system delivers force reduction, ensures stability for predictable footing, and is sealed to protect against moisture intrusion.
Sports Turf specializes in the construction and installation of sport surfaces, including natural grass and artificial turf fields, tennis courts, and track surfaces. In addition, Sports Turf Company serves as a consultant and owners’ advocate through the entire process of selecting the best facility solutions and surfaces to meet owners’ specific needs.
