Synthetic Turf for Indoor Sports Fields

Why Choose Artificial Turf for Indoor Sports Fields?

What separates indoor turf from outdoor systems isn’t just where it’s installed, but what the system has to handle. Without weather as a variable, the pressure falls entirely on the surface itself: continuous, intensive use from multiple sports programs that need a consistent field day after day. Our indoor systems address this through a dense, premium fiber construction built to handle concentrated, continuous use.

Here’s more of what indoor sports field turf brings to your facility:

• Certified Performance Standards: All indoor sports field installations are engineered to meet ASTM standards, so the surface performs to the requirements of every sport on the schedule, from the first practice session through the final game of the year.
• Proprietary SharkTooth™ Fiber Technology: Our indoor turf systems are built around SharkTooth™ fiber-slitting technology, a proprietary process we’re the sole manufacturer of in the western hemisphere. The result is a surface with exceptional durability and a natural grass appearance, backed by a track record of 100,000 cycles on Lisport accelerated testing.
• Built for the Demands of Indoor Programming: In a controlled environment, there’s no offseason. The dense construction of our indoor systems produces a more resilient surface.
• Year-Round Access for Every Program: One indoor turf field can serve football, soccer, baseball, softball, and more on a shared surface with no gaps for weather recovery or seasonal downtime. Programs that share an indoor facility get a field that shows up ready for every practice, every game, and every event on the calendar.
• Infill Options for Indoor Performance: Our indoor turf systems are available with 100% crumb rubber—the industry-standard infill installed in roughly 12,000 fields across the United States, chosen for its longevity and low-maintenance profile—or a rubber/sand blend, a proven infill that resists compaction and delivers a clean, consistent playing surface.
• Lower Maintenance Means Lower Operating Costs: Indoor turf requires no irrigation, no mowing, and no reseeding. Routine brushing and periodic inspections are the primary ongoing requirements, freeing up budget and staff time for the programs the facility is there to serve.

From university practice facilities to recreation centers and multi-sport complexes, artificial turf indoor sports fields give every program a surface built to keep pace with a year-round schedule.

What Shock Pads Bring to a Multi-Use Field

When one field runs multiple programs continuously, the hours of use compound quickly. A shock pad installed beneath the turf system takes on a significant share of that load at the base level, protecting the turf fibers and backing from above while cushioning the impact athletes feel with every step. For facilities running high-volume, multi-sport indoor programming, a shock pad is a worthwhile addition to the overall system design.

Three shock pad options are available for indoor sports fields:

• ShockDrain 580® is a shock-attenuation pad that delivers effective impact absorption, along with excellent drainage capacity, keeping the system draining efficiently and performing consistently during heavy use.

• ProPlay® Pad provides outstanding dimensional stability, keeping the turf's backing from shrinking, moving, or stretching, so the field stays exactly where it was installed.

• Brock Pad offers the right combination of impact attenuation and field firmness, with drain holes and channels that move water off the field quickly and efficiently.

The right shock pad depends on your facility’s programming priorities and how the field will be used across sports.
