My man @AndyOmmen1 hit the nail on the head here.

Most people think they have to figure out field maintenance alone.
Andy Ommen says the opposite. In Episode 8 of The Inside Edge, he talks about why beginners should never hesitate to ask questions. Even the pros started somewhere, and most are more than willing to help. Andy says he loves when people reach out looking for a solution.

24 Days of Christmas - Day 20 (Field Safety Pt 2)
Natural surfaces excel in sports. Natural grass stays @ ambient air temps or cooler, reducing heat risks. Other surfaces can be 50-60 degrees hotter, causing cramping, scalding, dehydration, and heat exhaustion/stroke.

Natural Grass > than synthetic surfaces. Ask the training staff of synthetic surfaces.

24 Days of Christmas - Day 19 (Field Safety Pt 1)
Safety is the top priority. Natural surfaces outperform others, absorbing impact & dispersing it up to 20' from the origin - 6x farther than others. Reduces concussions & lower leg injuries: 213% less PCL & 63% less ACL injuries.

Great picture of a capped field. This was a cold one for us, but going to be a great result in the spring for the Lady Blue Devils Softball team!

Infield capping. Hats off to Villa Grove softball completely renovating their softball facility. We removed old material and brought in 300 tons of quality infield mix from @DuraEdge. New field was layered in & re-graded to provide positive drainage

This renovation converted a little league field with a very pronounced outfield lip into a high school softball field. Fun project!

"24 Days of Christmas" Day - 10 Many baseball & softball fields commonly get a "lip" or build up of material around the grass edge of the infield. Removing this lip will allow for water flow off the surface and a safe transition for the athletes when moving from dirt to grass.

Laser grading infield soil helps create true ball hop and allows rain water to positively drain off the surface for faster playability. Thank you Northwestern Wildcat Softball for letting us dial in your field.

What an awesome result! This project was a blast and the school’s priority was the safety of their athletes!

Sand topdressing is a huge benefit to sports fields like the ones for Illini Athletics & Heartland CC. Sand can provide soil with essential nutrients to help keep soils in balance. It helps protect the grass along with creating a smooth, stable & safe surface for athletes.

Overseeding sports fields is important, especially for older fields. New seed is bred to have superior qualities to help fields perform their best and give athletes a safe surface. Color, disease resistance, drought tolerance & natural regeneration.
