Our California partner, The KYA Group, recently completed installation of our synthetic turf system for Fullerton ISD.
Fullerton Union High School is the oldest high school in Orange County, California. Since 1893 the secondary school has prided itself on creating an environment grounded in academic, athletic, and co-curricular success. The school consistently ranks in the top 7% of high schools, as reported by both US News and World Reports, as well as being named as Washington Post’s “Most Challenging High Schools”. The Fullerton Indians athletics teams compete under the California Interscholastic Federation’s Southern Section.
The Indian’s new multiuse field will be the official surface for the football and soccer teams. The men’s varsity football team had a rough start to the season with three away games in a row that resulted in losses. However, on the team’s homecoming on the Indian’s turned the season around and came out with a win. Tonight the Indians will be taking on the Sanora Raiders in an away game, but next week (10/13), the boys will be back home on their own turf.
The synthetic turf sports system at Fullerton Union High School is specifically engineered for player safety and performance. Act Global turf is designed to give athletes of all levels a professional-quality sports surface that will reduce injuries and increase playability.
Good luck to the Indians on the 2017-2018 season!

Mart, Texas, a small city near Waco, recently completed installation of their new professional turf system.
For the remainder of the 2017 season, the Panthers will now practice and compete on an artificial turf system that is engineered for safety and performance. Act Global turf is benchmarked against Texas A&M’s Kyle Field to perform like natural grass, with the added benefits of synthetic turf. This is proven by more than 100 laboratory tests to test durability in heavy use and intense climatic conditions.
Good luck to the Mart Panthers on their 2017-2018 season!

Marin Catholic’s Bishop Daly field is a multipurpose synthetic turf facility in Kentfield, California. For 15 years leading up to this past August, the high school student-athletes were facing safety concerns and hazards revolving around the previous natural grass and bordering vegetation.
Our awesome partners at The KYA Group arranged this complete field renovation for the Wildcats. The most noticeable part of this install is the baseball diamond and outfield crafted from Act Global artificial grass. Our baseball turf is not only proven to be the most durable fibrillated yarn product on the market, but it is also benchmarked against top natural grass training facilities, including the New York Yankees and the Houston Astros. Because of the extensive research and development that has gone into our baseball turf, the Wildcats have a consistent surface for peak player performance.
The unrivaled durability of our yarn is essential to providing an excellent multi-play experience. Bishop Daly field is utilized by the field hockey team in the fall and the baseball team in the spring. While the baseball team now has an unparalleled playing surface, the field hockey team too now has a professional hockey system.
Thank you to our partners at The KYA group, and good luck to each of the Wildcat teams this year in sports!

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.
