Mowing grass seems to be the most obvious practice that must be done to maintain any field. With a complex of the SoccerPlex's size, it is quite a feat to accomplish mowing all fields. With our 21 grass fields and the surrounds our grounds crew has to stay on top of about 162 acres of grass to mow. Mowing a field is much different than mowing a lawn, there are many different characteristics that our grounds crew changes depending on the type of grass, the time of year, the pattern being mowed, and what the weather has been.
