Abstract/Contents: | Details preparations for the Euro 2012 sporting event in Warsaw, Poland. Notes that "of the sixteen teams participating in the Euro 2012 this year, thirteen chose to base themselves in Poland with the remaining three teams in Ukraine," and that the Sports Turf Research Institute (STRI) was asked to provide renovation schedules and equipment replacement for the five facilities that did not meet standards. Explains that "the England training camp at Hutnik (Krakow) was designed, project managed, and maintained under the guidance of STRI to provide a surface that would be comparable to the quality of the venue pitches the England team would be playing on." Concludes by discussing the damage that the opening and closing ceremonies for the tournament could cause to the turf. |
