Georgetown ISD is a mid-sized school district that is experiencing rapid growth. Due to high usage, they needed to replace East View High School's artificial turf baseball field. Georgetown ISD was looking to move beyond the standard crumb rubber/silica sand system with a higher-quality playing surface that met their budgetary needs. The old field had "irregular hops" when hitting balls, creating a trampoline effect and maintained a much higher surface temperature than newer options available today. KYA received full buy-in from the district after presenting the NR34 turf system that focuses on player safety and performance. Based on our past performance and partnership philosophy, Georgetown ISD knew KYA would knock this project out of the park. KYA maintained a tight installation window and provided an extensive warranty package. The NR34 turf system is engineered to mimic the characteristics of natural grass and clay. The East View HS field is the first turf system to utilize a shock pad underlayment system enhancing player safety and performance with an alternative natural infill that helps keep the turf surface 20-30 degrees cooler than traditional crumb rubber. This field is a true showpiece for the district, attracting the attention of all who play on it.
