Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that pitch performance is being overlooked as many stadiums are being reconstructed. Discusses the needs of the pitch for adequate light, which the new stadiums are failing to provide. Describes photosynthesis and how low light levels weaken turf. Suggests that without light during the autumn season, turf will not have enough stored energy to maintain strength throughout the winter. Emphasizes that more research is necessary to determine how stadiums can be built to address this problem. |
