In late 2021 and early 2022, Sports Turf Company completed the artificial turf renovation of Lowndes’ baseball and softball fields.
“We are honored to continue providing state-of-the-art athletic facilities with industry-leading technology at Lowndes High School,” Sports Turf Company president Todd Wiggins said. “The Vikings’ staff has shown its commitment to the student-athletes by upgrading its facilities, and we’re honored Lowndes County administrators chose us as their partner.”
Sports Turf Company renovated Martin Stadium’s existing artificial turf field into a system that excels in safety, durability and performance. The new surface features AstroTurf’s RootZone 3D Blend HD turf system, Brock Powerbase YSR shock pad and organic BrockFILL infill. AstroTurf’s RootZone 3D Blend is a performance artificial turf system that combines slit film and monofilament fibers with a RootZone layer for optimum durability and better shock absorbency. Brock Powerbase YSR shock pad and BrockFILL are specifically engineered to optimize safety for athletes’ impacts to the surface. BrockFILL is the latest in organic infills and is sustainably grown and harvested in Georgia.
The indoor facility for the Vikings features the same system installed at Martin Stadium: AstroTurf’s RootZone 3D Blend HD turf system, Brock Powerbase YSR shock pad and organic BrockFILL infill.
Sports Turf specializes in the construction and installation of sports surfaces, including natural grass and artificial turf fields, tennis courts and track surfaces. In addition, Sports Turf Company serves as a consultant and owners’ advocate through the entire process of selecting the best facility solutions and surfaces to meet owners’ specific needs. The company continues evolving to provide its clients with higher-performing, safer and more durable athletic facilities.
