The premier New Orleans stadium to receive the leading artificial grass technology from the American-based manufacturer for the 2018 season.
Following a strong 2017 season, the SMG-managed Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans has chosen Act Global for the second-consecutive year as the manufacturer and installer for turf. The new field will be installed in late July before the New Orleans Saints’ first game against the Atlanta Falcons.
Due to its iconic nature and high demand, the Superdome is one of the most heavily used sport, concert and event venues in the nation. For this reason, it is also one of the only stadiums to install a new artificial grass system each year, as it requires non-grass floor space between football seasons. Act Global supplies superiorly-engineered turf systems created to advance player safety and performance. After exceptional feedback both internally and externally regarding the quality and appearance of the field, Act Global was announced as the preferred artificial grass provider this year as well.
“Act Global is honored to be selected again as the playing surface for a number of important NFL and NCAA games. We are thrilled to work with such a wonderful team at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome and SMG. They have a passion for creating the best game experience possible for the players and fans, and we appreciate the great feedback concerning our turf quality and performance. We are committed to continue providing the best support and turf experience possible,” comments Act Global CEO, John Baize.
Last year’s synthetic turf field was relocated to a public high school in Meriden, Kansas as part of a donation project through KTX Sports Construction’s Project 340.

Spring is almost here, and with it, the start of baseball season.
The South Charleston Little League is committed to providing the youth of our community the opportunity to learn and play baseball and softball in a safe and enjoyable environment while developing the qualities of sportsmanship, respect, discipline, and teamwork. As part of the Little League organization, the young players are exposed to the largest youth sports program in the world, spanning over 80 countries with more than 40 million honored graduates. The young athletes are taught the value of hard work, dedication, and sportsmanship-traits they will carry with them for the rest of their lives and help them develop into leaders both on and off the field.
South Charleston’s Little League starts play April 2nd at Little Creek Park. The community complex is used year-round by residents and given priority to the city’s Little League throughout the Spring months. In 2014 Act Global manufactured two synthetic turf baseball fields for the park to increase playability and maximize potential usage for the South Charleston community. The artificial grass also provides the benefits of consistent play to remove bad hops, extreme durability, and excellent drainage. The turf was engineered to be comparable in performance, quality, and safety of top MLB stadiums in pristine condition and tested against at the New York Yankees and Houston Astros spring training facilities for confirmation. This means that South Charleston’s Little League players and parents can be confident that their field is the most elite available.
Good luck to each of the Little League teams this season!

On a Tuesday evening in the early summer of 2015, the Women’s was in full competition with a semi-final match of the United States against Germany.

Predictions were split on the outcome, each team has an exceptional track-record and are filled with some of the world’s most elite players.
