FEEDBACK
Noteworthy comments and feedback as dictated by the players in the final open-ended question of the survey
Most reoccuring comments
** Artificial Turf is much harder on the body with joint soreness and makes for tougher work. Southern grass fields are the best.
** Fields that are used for baseball and football leave hard infield that is difficult to play on. When you have one foot on grass
and one in hard dirt, injuries are bound to happen.
** If it's grass, enough of the highschools, colleges and concerts playing on it the day before. If it's a cold weather grass field, these fields
are battered to heck. The grounds crew can only do so much.
** We need a league wide standard/regulation policy for every field if the NFL really cares about the safety of all players.
** No baseball or half grass/half dirt infields.
Suggested changes for improvement
** Artificial surfaces should be required in cold weather cities.
** We need better practice fields. Level and elminate holes, divots and uneven ground.
** Cold weather grass teams should have road trips late in the season to avoid playing on frozen surfaces. There should be no games
played on grass fields the same weekend as another event.
** Even dispersement of rubber material is needed, specifically comfortable give in twists and turns and level in height with no bumps.
** Every stadium should be evaluated properly every week prior to game day.
** If it's a multi-purpose stadium, mandate that it's artificial. If only one team used by the NFL, then it can be grass. Force Chicago and
Pittsburgh to go turf.
** More time and money need to be spent on the fields. College surfaces are better.
** Use softer bermuda grass with sand.
** No more non updated artificial turf that is hard and over filled with ground up rubber and cheap top layer grass that you can pull off like a
cheap tupae like Kansas City.
