Maintaining your turf baseball field begins with removing any debris that\u2019s made its way onto the field. Field managers should prohibit gum, tobacco, sunflower seeds, metal cleats, and other sharp objects from entering the playing area.<\/p>\n
In addition to cleaning, you must sanitize the turf periodically. That ensures the health and safety of players and coaches. Disinfection should include special solvents, cleansers, and anti-microbial products to remove invisible particles and bacterial growth.<\/p>\n\n
Field managers and athletic directors must understand that some areas of a baseball field are subject to higher use than others. For example, base paths on baseball diamonds are considered a heavy traffic area.<\/p>\n
Ensuring that high-use areas of the field are filled with infill (product placed between blades of artificial grass) is an important step in maintaining your playing surface. Continued use can lead to increased degradation and premature replacement when the infill is displaced and not replaced.<\/p>\n\n
