| Abstract/Contents: | "Relationships between sward height and the roll of a football were examined under wet and dry conditions. Ball roll decreased from around 6.2 m for a sward height of 25 mm to less than 2 m for a sward height of 157 mm. It is proposed that during the playing season, a maximum acceptable figure for sward height for good quality amateur play would be 50 mm. Preferred values would, however, be lower." |
