[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because the students are wrong Synthetic turf is the only valid answer for school systems in most North American counties. Playability, maintenance and hours of use outweigh the rubber crumb issue. These children do not understand the incredible pesticide and herbicide maintenance program not to mention the man hours and equipment necessary for maintaining even 75% of the turf density the synthetic allows for. What baffled me is how it took $75k to come up with that report. They could’ve sat in a computer lab and ChatGPt’d that entire packet. Not a single real life example from any of the counties field - or a case study given a weekend of heavy rain, low temps and total playable surfaces between the two options. It’s ok that he shelved it. He could’ve tossed the report into a mud puddle. The children have NO idea what they’re talking about.
