Working alongside Rabren General Contractors, the project will include an indoor artificial turf field, two natural grass fields and a sand pit. Sports Turf Company will construct the indoor artificial turf field to include a turf system focused on safety, enhanced performance, and improved footing specifically for college athletes. The artificial turf system features AstroTurf’s Rhino Blend 48 turf system and Brock Powerbase Pro shock pad. AstroTurf’s Rhino Blend 48 turf system is an artificial turf system that combines slit film and monofilament fibers providing the field with the best of both worlds, durability and aesthetics. The Brock Powerbase Pro shock pad is engineered to optimize safety for athletes, specifically NCAA and NFL athletes, during impacts to the surface. The precisely designed shock pad provides a firmer surface allowing athletes to get in and out of cuts quicker, while reducing lower extremity injuries. Sports Turf will install a full underdrain system, sand-based rootzone and irrigation system on both natural grass fields. TifTuf Bermudagrass will be installed due to its ability to establish faster and recover quickly. The underdrain system and sand-based rootzone will help move water away at a faster rate allowing the Tigers to practice after intense rainfall. These elite natural grass field are designed to withstand high amounts of traffic and rainfall and remain in great condition for practices throughout the season. “The University has always shown a great commitment to providing the best facilities for their athletes,” said Sports Turf Company President Todd Wiggins. “We’re excited to be back on campus to provide the Tigers with a facility that will continue to propel the program forward.” Sports Turf Company currently has two Certified Track Builders (CTB) on staff as recognized by the American Sports Builders Association (ASBA). By having passed a rigorous comprehensive exam on [running track construction ](http://sportsturf.net/running-tracks-running-track-surfaces/)and maintenance, [Certified Track ](http://sportsturf.net/running-tracks-running-track-surfaces/)[Builders ](http://sportsturf.net/running-tracks-running-track-surfaces/)have demonstrated the highest level of expertise of running tracks.  ![271658452_6712810382123480_4749730741324748774_n (1)](https://blog.sportsturf.net/hs-fs/hubfs/271658452_6712810382123480_4749730741324748774_n%20(1).jpeg?width=600&name=271658452_6712810382123480_4749730741324748774_n%20(1).jpeg)   [Back to Blog](https://blog.sportsturf.net) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ## Related Articles ## [Sports Turf Company Completes Renovations on Auburn University’s Jane B.
