The FieldTurf is Set for NCAA LAX Championship
This weekend, FieldTurf will be the surface of the 2018 NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championship held at Gillette Stadium. Home to the New England Patriots and Revolution, the stadium will play host to lacrosse’s biggest event for the second year in a row, showcasing the semi-final matches and National Championship Game.
FieldTurf has been at the forefront of the sport’s exponential growth and is now the trusted surface of elite lacrosse programs across the country. FieldTurf systems provide athletes and organizations optimal performance, safety and durability. Designed to provide elite traction for players to cut, plant and release, FieldTurf systems are renowned for true ball to surface interaction and speed.
More than half of the NCAA Div I teams participating in the tournament play or practice on FieldTurf. With installations at three of the four colleges in the semi-finals (Maryland, Yale & Albany), FieldTurf has anchored itself as the trusted choice of elite lacrosse programs.
FieldTurf has been the surface of choice at Gillette Stadium since transitioning from grass in 2006. "It is our goal each year to provide the highest quality surface for both the New England Patriots and New England Revolution, and we were eager to take advantage of FieldTurf's latest innovations for the 2017 season” said Jim Nolan, Senior Vice President of Gillette Stadium.
Division I, II and III teams will all be competing for their respective titles. One weekend, three divisions and five games, all on one surface! A true testament to the renowned durability of FieldTurf, the home surface of over 500 collegiate, high school and municipal lacrosse programs.
