HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
FIELDS WITH SHOCK PADS VS FIELDS WITHOUT
7-year study
Fields without pads led to:
- 53% less player-to-turf collision injuries
- 39% less shoulder girdle trauma
- 63% less lower leg injuries
- 73% less neck trauma
When are shock pads recommended?
There are some situations where a shock pad is highly recommend. When installing light-weight infill systems, common with alternative / natural infills like cork, coconut and/or olive, there isn’t enough material in the system to provide the necessary shock absorption. To meet the needed industry safety requirements, a shock pad is added under the system to provide the adequate performance.

- 19%-26% lower incidence of severe injuries
- 32%-47% lower incidence of player-to-turf injuries
- 17%-22% lower incidence of Ligament Sprains and Tears
- 58%-63% lower incidence of injuries on surfaces aged 8+ years, vs systems with 0-5.9 lbs per square foot

United Soccer League, League 1
Artificial Turf vs Grass
Three Seasons - 2020-2022
Study concluded: Overall, the incidence of injuries per athlete exposure was significantly lower on artificial turf than natural grass. Injuries subdivided into location demonstrate statistically lower rates of head/neck, upper limb, and lower limb injuries on artificial turf. Additionally, with regards to type of injury, the rate of contusions and central/peripheral nervous system injuries were statistically lower on artificial turf.

Artificial Turf vs Grass
Skin Abrasions Due to Sliding on Playing Surface
Study concluded: No evidence of more skin related traumatic injuries when a slide was performed on artificial turf compared to natural grass.
MLS Soccer
Artificial Turf vs Grass
4-year study
Study concluded: The overall rate of injury on artificial turf was “noninferior” — or equivalent — to that on natural grass.
College Men's & Women's Soccer
Artificial Turf VS Natural Grass
10-year study
Study concluded: NCAA soccer players who practice on natural grass have increased risk of ACL injury (8.67 times more likely) compared with the risk of those practicing on an artificial surface, regardless of sex or NCAA division of play. No difference in risk of ACL injury between playing surfaces was detected during matches.
Effects of Playing Surface on Physical, Physiological and Perceptual Responses
artificial vs grass
Study concluded:
- An improved physical performance on artificial turf compared to natural grass.
- Performance tasks incorporating greater reliance on agility and change of direction ability are more likely to be enhanced on artificial turf compared to natural grass.
- The improved physical performance on artificial turf was accompanied by improved perceptual and some blood biochemistry (Lac, Neu and LYM) responses.
