Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the addition of the Natural Sportsturf Division to the Sports and Play Construction Association (SAPCA). Details the history of SAPCA, stating that it was formed in 1997 "by the leading builders of outdoor synthetic sports surfaces, and has inevitably focused primarily on artificial surfaces over the last eight years." States that the Natural Sportsturf Division was created "to embrace the full range of sports surfaces." Lists "the many component parts" of the sports turf industry including architects and designers, sportsground contractors, sand and rootzone suppliers, grass seed suppliers, fertiliser suppliers, the pesticide industry, machinery companies, groundsmen and greenkeepers, and agronomists and consultants. Also states that "the Division has been formed to represent and promote experienced contractors that meet the Division's agreed membership critera, to promote high standards of construction within the sportsturf industry, and to provide a valuable forum for ongoing dialouge within the industry involving contractors, manufacturers and suppliers, consultants and specifiers, governing bodies and funding agencies." |
