| Abstract/Contents: | Details the involvement of the STRI (Sports Turf Research Institute) in the 2010 FIFA World Cup tournaments. Explains that "STRI was engaged by the English FA [Football Association] to help in the delivery of the Rustenburg facility." Continues that STRI managed the pitch delivery project, which included the "delivery of 10 stadia pitches, 40 team base camp pitches, and 13 venue specific training pitches spread across South Africa." Briefly discusses the teamwork displayed by all preparation teams, stating that "in every case, the team gave 100% [percent] and were totally dedicated to the project." Concludes that STRI was proud to have participated in the World Cup preparations, and would "of course" participate again if asked to do so. |
