Maryland SoccerPlex, in conjunction with Campey Turf Care Systems (United Kingdom) and GreenOne Industries(Colorado), is hosting a Demonstration Day as part of the SoccerPlex Stadium field renovation. The renovation, starting Monday August 27, is utilizing several unique pieces of equipment from Campey’s distribution out of the UK:
– KORO Field Topmaker (2.5 meter)- “Fraze mow” ¼” of field to removal of up to 2” of field
– KORO by Imants Recycling Dresser (1.9 meter)- Deep de-compaction machine that also generates topdressing for the field
– Raycam SpeedDresser 18– Topdresser to put down 2” of sand at 4 mph
– Imants Shockwave– “Soil wave” deep de-compaction
SoccerPlex Stadium, a sand-based field reinforced with “turf grids” is being re-established from seed and will open October 9th. The renovation is similar to a process performed on major fields and competition areas across Europe include:
– Manchester United FC
– Arsenal FC
– St. George’s Park (Home of the English FA)
– Real Madrid
– All England Lawn Tennis Club (Wimbledon).
Along with highlighting the machines, Jerad Minnick (Director of Grounds for SoccerPlex) will share about the renovation process
– Needs that lead to the renovation
– Thinking that went into utilizing the machines for the renovation process
– Reasons for selecting seeding instead of sod installation
– Research that went into seed selection
– Explanation of cutting edge nutrition plans to facilitate a fast, healthy grow-in from seed
Machines will also be demonstrated on existing cool season and bermudagrass fields simulate all situations.
Representatives from Campey Turf Care will be on site for the demo to discuss all equipment available from Campey Turf Systems, Imants, and KORO by Imants.
