Athletic fields are an important part of school campuses, recreational facilities, local parks, and community or neighborhood centers. They offer both children and adults opportunities to spend time outdoors participating in healthy and fun team sports or exercising on an individual basis. However, athletic fields can quickly become an eyesore and unusable if they are not regularly maintained by Landscape Professionals. In today’s blog post, we discuss several reasons why Landscape Professionals should always maintain athletic fields for schools, parks, recreational facilities, and community centers.
Safer Facilities
Safer fields mean fewer injuries and lower liability risks for schools, recreation centers, and local governments that oversee area parks and community centers. Amateur landscapers or day laborers are usually in a hurry to complete the job and move on without considering the overall safety of the property for future use. LMC’s Landscape Professionals can pinpoint safety concerns with the field quality and make corrections and proactive changes to keep families safer.
Better Quality Athletic Fields
When athletic fields and are professionally maintained, the end result is longer lasting athletic fields with less wear and tear on the turf. Poorly maintained athletic fields can be time-consuming and expensive to replace. Landscape Professionals have years of training and extensive knowledge of plant care and soil health, ensuring that the athletic fields are as healthy and beautiful as possible. They can proactively identify and treat potential threats to property health, and also maintain stable growth throughout the year.
Lower Maintenance Costs
Healthier and stronger field conditions result in less overall maintenance throughout the year. The quality work of Landscape Professionals results in fewer instances of insect infestations, invasive weed growth, or brown patches from poor irrigation. Less annual maintenance equates to lower annual maintenance costs for budgeting purposes.
