Abstract

The fundamental function of the sports field turf is to provide a safe and stable playing surface for the sports it carries, so as to maximize the athletes’ competitive level and prolong their sports career. This paper summarized the methods to improve the stability of turfgrass rootzone for sports field by consulting the related literature at home and abroad, including the selection of sand particles and the use of reinforcing materials in the rootzone, the application of hybrid turf system establishment technology, scientific and reasonable turf cultural practices and so on. At the same time, the paper also discussed the problems existing in the current research on the stability of the sports field rootzone, and it is believed that compared with the developed countries in the west, there is still a big gap in the research on the reinforcement of the rootzone for sports field in China, and further research is needed.
- sports field turf,
- sand selection,
- reinforcement materials,
