Field turf

If this is artificial turf, why does it look like there is dirt being kicked up on every play?

SKD, look at any replay in slo mo. Whenever someone hits the ground, slides or whatever you can see what looks like dirt flying.

I was just curious what that was.

I didn't even think of it having to be porous for drainage. That makes sense. Thanks.

there small little pieces of rubber soo you have better traction..... if you ever go to a bc hocky or basketball game after or befor the game they leave the football stadium open and you can go on the field its realy cool..... the reason i'm saying this is because if you ever go on there field they have the same stuff... its black rubber..... my highschool is getting it done to there field....... after every game it looks like trash!!! soo hopefully it wil help
