| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses BMO Field in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, stating that "it's [it is] built exactly like one of the greens at Augusta National, but there's [there is] no contour to it. It's as flat as a pancake." Highlights the conversion of the field from artificial to natural turf during 2009 and 2010. Reports that the field utilizes the first SubAir aeration and moisture removal system to be installed in Canada, stating that "the system literally sucks excess moisture from the field when it gets too wet or adds moisture during a heat wave." Details other technical attributes of the field, mentioning Glycol heated tubing, a perimeter irrigation system, and "the first glycol-heated SubAir field in the world that is monitored by remote sensors." |
