2. 8 year old TigerTurf surface replaced early 2015 Sutherland Sharks pioneers in synthetic fields in NSW Old surface - yarn was a standard fibrillated tape 50-60 hours a week usage 8 year old yarn, grass and infill technology and pre Tencate ownership Seymour Shaw

3. Choosing the Right System Elite, High Level Grounds, Low Usage, Boots Only (European Stadium Ground) Community Grounds, High Usage, Boots plus Flat Soled Shoes DIFFERENT SYSTEMS ARE REQUIRED TO COPE PLAYABILITYDURABILITY

4. Seymour Shaw characteristics/requirements Usage 50 – 60 hours/week maintained – high intensity Generally boots only – no flat soled shoes Controlled environment, fully fenced, no public use Regular Maintenance Regime – external and internal Desire for FIFA Quality Pro (2 Star) – highest performance characteristics Low infill splash Replacement Decisions

5. Standard Fibrillated -Due to manufacturing techniques was found to be brittle over time -Splitting ensues/hardening of field Decision on Yarn Type/Grass Monofilament -Predominant in recent years -Quality materials and shape, outperformed standard fibrillated -Many different shapes tried -Natural realistic, upright fibres -Under high usage tendency to split -Tuft bind can be an issue -Flat soled shoes crush fibre/compact infill Hybrid – Standard Fibrillated/Monofilament -New concept -Should help encapsulate infill Tencate XP Fibrillated ENDURANCE -Improved manufacturing technique -Extremely high strength/durability -Ok with Flat Soled Shoes -Encapsulates infill, reduced splash -High performance -5yr Unlimited play durability warranty

6. System provides a cost effective FIFA Quality Pro (2 Star) system Pile weight 1627g/sqm 10mm sub angular silica 33mm SBR – provides the cushioning and player protection from the sand. Too little rubber may expose players to underlying sand. SBR offers best long term tested performance, cost effective solution, re-use of tyres destined for landfill The fibrillated yarn and finer grade SBR help encapsulate for low splash Durability second to none – field performance No pad – maintenance regime/controlled use Wembley Stripes – club request Endurance 60, No Pad, Sand/SBR Infill

7. Maintenance regime is vital to attain maximum surface life, safe playing and high performance. Monthly preventative maintenance of a field is normal practice: -Remove rubbish -Brushing /Grooming -Stain Cleaning -Surface Management -Moss/Algae Removal -Weeds -Infill Levels -Decompaction -Seams -Penalty Spots Maintenance Heavy duty drag brushing with decompaction tines
