Project Overview
The LandTek Group recently completed synthetic turf replacements for both the soccer and field hockey fields at Hofstra University. The soccer field received a significant upgrade with the installation of iron turf, marking a milestone as the first woven synthetic turf field in New York. Fencing was also installed.
For the field hockey facility, the existing turf was replaced with FieldTurf Hockey Gold. In addition to the turf replacement, LandTek installed brand new water cannons to ensure proper irrigation of the fields. These cannons are used to wet the field before play, which helps to speed up ball roll and improve overall playability. A new e-layer, or elastic layer, was also added beneath the turf to enhance shock absorption and provide a more comfortable playing surface for athletes. Fencing was also installed.
