[quote=Anonymous]Natural Grass is the way. Percentages are lower for injuries and over the long haul, less impact on the body. As a long time player of the game in my younger days, we never had issues with grass; the ball did not bounce 50 feet into the air, the field lines were clearly laid and not entangled with six other colors of lines, making a slide tackles did not cause rug burns and we did not bring home pounds of turf filler into our cars and homes. Sure turf allows for our over-populated areas to recreate, but the costs are so much greater than natural grass in terms of economic costs, environmental impact, and the proven health issues. There is no way counties, schools and park services will go back to natural surfaces because money-ed interests are already in, but there is no denying natural grass is best for the sport. Yes yes I realize the Counties and Park services can't even keep the fields clear of litter-- how are they going to maintain grass fields? Maybe the powers that be could actually work to maintain fields instead of merely collecting fees for use?[/quote]
