Since 1983, The Woodlands Rugby Club has been a catalyst committed to growing rugby in the North Houston area. The founders John Cherrybone, Dave Jenkins and Steve Box opened the club after settling in The Woodlands to inspire character growth and spread their love of the game by welcoming beginners alongside returning players. In the 30+ years since the club has gained recognition as a Division II National Champion in 2001 as well as become a pillar of community service within the city. The Woodlands Rugby Club works with 3 local philanthropic groups including Interfaith, Montgomery County Women’s Center, and the neighborhood trail clean up.
Rugby is an all year, all weather sport. Pre-season for the Woodlands Rugby Club took place in September, with the normal season’s game dates spanning from November to the end of April. Championship tournament dates can push the season well into May.
With this demanding schedule and little off-season recovery time, the safety of rugby players is vital. The Woodlands Rugby Club hosts practices as well as matches at the Alden Bridge Sports Park, which was upgraded to an all-weather synthetic turf system in 2013. Act Global’s Xtreme Turf was selected based off of its proven durability, safety, and performance. This synthetic turf was designed for player safety and comfort with quicker recovery from fatigue, ideal balance of shock absorption and vertical deformation, and high yarn density for comfort and protection on impact. Even in the most hazardous of scrums, Xtreme Turf helps players play rough and tackle safely. Because teams are utilizing the fields at this public park every day, The Woodlands needed a surface that could withstand heavy use while maintaining its integrity. Xtreme turf artificial grass is developed with maximum UV inhibitors to withstand heavy use and intense climatic conditions. This ensures that fibers last longer and perform better.
Good luck to the Woodlands Rugby Club on the 2017-2018 season!

Lakeside High School is a public high school located in the quaint western Riverside town of Lake Elsinore, California. Lakeside is one of three high schools in the district. Students are taught the fundamental pillars of respect, integrity, scholarship, and effort, and how to apply these traits to “rise and lead”. This is an expectation of students both in academic and athletic settings, and one that the football team has taken to heart. The Lancers currently boast a 5-1 record with multiple shutdowns of their opponents. Week 6 is about to get underway, marking the start of league games and the hunt for a playoff title. This week Lakeside will face off against Paloma Valley who match their 5-1 record. The Lakeside Lancers compete in the CIF Southern Section Sunbelt League.
With student-athletes working as hard as the Lancers, a safe and supportive surface is necessary for the long daily practice hours and games. The average high school football player can spend multiple hours a day practicing on the field, which is why Lakeside High School chose Act Global synthetic turf and installation by The KYA Group. The new multipurpose field is composed of artificial grass that is designed for professional play and offers quicker recovery from fatigue, ideal balance of shock absorption and vertical deformation, and a high yarn density for player comfort. This gives the Lancer football and soccer teams a stable and long-lasting sports system.
The Lancers will be taking on Paloma Valley High School at home tomorrow night at 7:00 PM.
Good Luck to the Lancers!

The Saturday morning game between the Army Black Knights and Tulane’s Green Wave was held at Yulman Stadium in New Orleans, Louisiana. Both teams were hoping to recover from losing the previous weekend to more talented teams. In the end, predictions placing Tulane on top proved to be correct when the Green wave beat out the Black Nights 21-17.
The game was close and Army held the lead for most of the second, third, and fourth quarter. In the last 30 seconds, Tulane scored a touchdown that put them at a four-point lead over the Black Nights. With such a small amount of time left on the clock, Army did not have time to recover.
Yulman Stadium had its grand opening in 2014 with a home opener for Tulane against former rival Georgia Tech. The game sold out all 30,000 seats. Previous to the opening of Yulman, Tulane shared a home stadium with the New Orleans Saints at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. When choosing the new synthetic turf surface for Yulman, Tulane chose to keep the same trusted surface that was used installed in the Superdome. This line of artificial grass is used by collegiate and professional teams across the country and has hosted teams for several Super Bowls. Act Global is proud to produce such a tested and respected line of synthetic turf systems. With more than 100 individual laboratory tests and benchmarks against top natural grass systems, Act Global s synthetic turf is a proven surface for safety, durability, and performance.
