The new artificial grass field installed by The KYA Group offers a professional level sports system to southern California school.
Austin, TX- Known to keep elite facilities for its athletes, Citrus College elected to revitalize its main field with leading synthetic turf technology. This summer The KYA Group expertly installed the artificial grass system before practice for the 2018 season began.
As a replacement for the outdated field, the Xtreme Turf system was selected for its reputation for safety and strength. The Citrus College Stadium has a long history of being used as a filming destination, meaning the field must remain camera-ready throughout the year. Xtreme Turf combines science with aesthetics to be safe for athletes, durable against damage, and beautiful for fans.
Citrus College’s new turf offers a bright and bold surface solution for a field that is utilized by multiple sports teams. The vivid markings make it easy for players and fans to distinguish their field lines. Finished off with a bold blue and orange border, the synthetic turf field rests beautifully in front of the college’s mountainous surroundings.
“The field couldn’t look better,” comments KYA regional director Andrea Ivey while visiting the site after completion. “We can’t wait to get players on the field so they can experience the turf themselves- we know the coaches are excited for game day.”

Round Rock, TX—The Round Rock Dragons football team upgrades their practice field to artificial grass.
The Xtreme Turf installed at Round Rock High School is Act Global’s DXT system. The DXT incorporates a layer of thatch fibers to help lock infill in place, and monofilament fibers which add shock absorbency. We recommend a DXT for indoor facilities because of its low maintenance paired with performance benefits.
Indoor facilities are prominent in states like Texas because they eliminate weather interference such as rainstorms, high heat, and humidity.
Round Rock High School is located about 9 miles north of our corporate office, making this project extra special to the Act Global family.

The Minnesota Vikings’ home features latest safety and technology built by leading firm and partner General Sports Surfaces.
Austin, TX – When U.S. Bank Stadium decided they wanted to replace their turf in 2019, they turned to Act Global due to their dedication to player safety and performance. The Vikings played their first nationally televised regular season home game on October 24th against the Washington Redskins.
This removal of the old field and new installation were completed by Act Global’s in-house crew and its partner General Sports Surfaces (GSS). Specializing in offering a full range of athletic surfaces including synthetic turf and running tracks, GSS also offers comprehensive services including design, installation, maintenance, and customer support. The installation included removable panels for event, soccer, and football conversions.
“Act Global is both honored and excited to be the turf supplier for U.S. Bank Stadium and home of the Minnesota Vikings,” Act Global CEO John Baize commented.
“General Sports Surfaces’ installation quality is amazing and could not have done a better job,” Baize added.
“The enormity of US Bank Stadium and the level of NFL talent that performs on this field excited not only me, but every single member of our General Sports Surfaces crew,” President of General Sports Surfaces Hector Puentes said. “We are extremely proud to have played a role in producing this beautiful playing surface. Our commitment whether it is an NFL, collegiate, or high school field, is to provide a safe yet durable athletic field for athletes.”

After witnessing the large success and durability of Hayes Field since 2015, the district knew exactly who to turn to in the selection of synthetic turf for their Chambers Field. It was no question having seen it withstand flooding and snowstorms on top of its extensive daily usage each day over the course of four years.
Act Global partner, HERA SPORTS, installed a new Act Global Xtreme Turf BDX50 field for the school’s football, soccer and lacrosse teams. Like Hayes Field, the new Chambers Field will showcase GreenPlay’s custom infill blend of coconut fibers and cork and use the ProPlay-Sport23 product by Schmitz Foam. The ProPlay pad ensures that the playing surface is shock absorbent and safe to play on and the organic infill option helps support the movement of “going green”. This system will ensure adequate gradient drainage of water to help combat against harsh weather and flooding.
Now that the high school will have two synthetic fields at their disposal instead of one, the practice and game day schedule for their football, soccer and lacrosse teams will become easier and more flexible for years to come. The new field will be able to quickly fix past issues and help student-athletes continue to develop their skills and sportsmanship with the added playtime a synthetic turf field provides, approximately six times more than the average natural grass field.
“Act Global is honored to be chosen for the field replacement at their stadium, Chambers Field,” said Act Global General Manager for Sales and Operations, Jerry Harper. “The success of our BDX50 system at Hayes Field, Bronxville Union Free School Districts Multipurpose Field, provide the Broncos the most state-of-the-art facilities in the area.”
The school district, Act Global and HERA SPORTS are confident in the turf system for Chambers Field. The world-class turf company hopes to continue to touch the lives of the student body as much as it has with Hayes Field, serving the multitude of communities across the district.

It’s time for another partner spotlight! JNC Premier Pitches & Fencing recently converted the Rathcoole Boys Football Club’s existing natural grass playing pitch into a full size synthetic turf soccer pitch with Act Global’s synthetic grass turf on a shock pad system and ancillary works!
The purpose of the Rathcoole Boys Football Club is to supply soccer for the boys and girls of Rathcoole, Saggart and the surrounding areas. Act Global is proud to have teamed up JNC Premier Pitches & Fencing to provide the club a new synthetic turf field for the kids to be able to enjoy and play more soccer.
It doesn’t have to be said to know that it’s important for the club to have a working turf field that can last throughout the year at any point of the day through any weather. With day and night practices, it is extremely important for the turf to be weatherproof and safe for children of all ages.
