Artificial turf playing surface

The artificial turf surface is composed of monofilament polyethylene blend fibres and an infill of coated polyurethane material. The fibres are meant to replicate blades of grass, while the infill and polyshock pad system act as a cushion. This cushion improves safety and allows players to plant and pivot as if playing on a grass field.
