Ray Moore Stadium received surface upgrades to world-class artificial grass from Act Global, installed by The KYA Group.
Austin, TX- This month KYA crews completed work to renovate the Victorville, California stadium by replacing the original natural grass field with high-quality synthetic turf.
Southern California’s Victor Valley Union High School District began searching earlier this year for an alternative to natural grass. The previous field had recurring issues of increasing water and maintenance costs and was seen as unsafe from holes created by burrowing animals and erosion. With uneven portions of the field, athletes were faced with a higher risk of injury.
Act Global’s Xtreme Turf is trusted across the world as the best artificial grass technology possible. Backed by years of research and extensive testing, Xtreme Turf is a proven surface to make athlete safety the number one priority.
“Not only is the field extremely functional in its ability to safely accommodate multiple different sports teams, it’s also beautiful,” comments KYA Regional Manager Andrea Ivey. “The large Jackrabbit centerfield logo is a serious visual enhancement to the stadium.”
The excellent relationship between Act Global and The KYA Group has helped bring professional-quality sports surfaces to schools across California.
Director of Act Global Chuck Fleishman notes, “We are proud to have a partner so tirelessly dedicated to quality. KYA shares our belief that better sports fields are created by first serving the needs of players, and we are honored to continue to work with their team.”

Diphu is the headquarter city of the Karbi Anglong district within the state of Assam. The small city is home to mainly local tribal populations native to northeast India.
Diphu faces large amounts of rainfall throughout the summer months that easily overflow natural grass fields. This constant rain can last for weeks or even months on end. The monsoon season can leave communities without an outlet to get active or advance players into competitive athletes. This is not ideal for a city that recognizes football as its most popular sport. Adopted by most of the residents, it is significant for there to be a presence of sport within the city.
Act Global and installation partner Decor India are revolutionizing the way football is played in India with the introduction of synthetic turf fields to communities across the country. India is beginning to adopt the artificial grass technology from Act Global as its surface of choice. After years of proven adherence to quality and safety, Act Global is a proven superior alternative to natural grass. The science that creates Xtreme Turf allows for the rapid expansion of days on the field despite climatic conditions and with little need for maintenance.

Since 2000, AvTurf has been the trusted aviation turf system for some of the largest airports across the world. Most airports actually face the same critical issues: foreign object debris, erosion, poor visibility, drainage problems, and wildlife encounters. Modern facilities have found ways to mostly mitigate the effects of these concerns, but these reactive strategies leave airports vulnerable to the potential of a catastrophic event. For almost 2 decades many facilities have begun to take a proactive approach to eliminate hazards such as these from vital runways and taxiways through the installation of AvTurf’s specialized, quality-tested system.
In addition to the crucial safety enhancements that AvTurf provides to airports, the artificial grass surface has been noted as a more aesthetic alternative to natural grass that reduces time, cost, and planning for regular maintenance. With no need for mowing, weeding, or fertilizing, or the need to shut down runways for maintenance vehicles, airports are able to recoup their expenditures associated with the installation of AvTurf synthetic turf within just a few years.
AvTurf is committed to helping build safer and more efficient airports across the world

Football season is back in session for many high schools across the country, and our favorite Florida champions kicked off their home opener on Friday with a win. The Mount Dora Christian Academy Bulldogs shut down their opponents, the Legacy Charter Eagles, in a 36-0 game. While the Bulldogs had several players on both offense and defense that had the opportunity to shine, the Eagles earned no touchdowns, passing yards, or rushing yards throughout the four quarters.
Running back Tyler Allen was part of the all-star offense Friday night and was named the player of the game after multiple long-distance runs and a 60-yard touchdown run that secured their win and reinforced their powerhouse status for the 2018 season. The team suffered no turnovers, fumbles, or interceptions.
This season will be the team’s second year playing in their newly built stadium that was finished just in time for the fall 2017 season. Each aspect of the stadium was meticulously designed for the players and fans, including the synthetic turf field from Act Global. The field was constructed with a specialized drainage system underneath the artificial grass to keep the surface dry and play-ready despite the chronic climactic rain. This helps ensure fewer canceled games from weather and helps bring community members together under the Friday night lights and around the beautiful turf field that is completed with a large bulldog logo in the enter.
Congrats to the Bulldogs on their first win of the season, and we hope to see the team go undefeated once again!
