Irrigation techniques for sports fields
To choose the right type of system it is necessary to take into account various factors such as the conformation of the land and its use, its location and the local climate. The sports field irrigation system must satisfy the water needs of the ground uniformly, avoiding the formation of puddles or dry areas.
A type of irrigation suitable for many sports fields is sprinkler irrigation, a solution that allows you to cover a large area uniformly. In this case, the sprinklers form a jet of water which is distributed in the form of small rain-like drops. Depending on the case we can install different sprinkler systems:
Fixed retractable
a telescopic arm extends from the ground during the irrigation process and then re-enters the ground
Mobile
the sprinklers are fixed on tripods or wheels and can be moved as needed
Sports fields: the importance of maintenance
Here are 4 reasons why it is essential to keep a sports field in good condition:
Reduces the risk of injuries
a well-maintained pitch means providing athletes with safe terrain with a reduced risk of injury. Conversely, uneven or damaged ground can cause slips, sprains or falls, putting the health and safety of athletes at risk.
Promotes athletes’ performance
a field kept in excellent condition favors the athletes’ performance. A uniform and well-maintained surface allows for better traction, acceleration and fluid movement, improving performance and allowing players to best express their skills.
A better experience for viewers
a well-maintained sports field helps create a better experience for spectators. A space that is welcoming and pleasing to the eye can attract more people to attend sporting events, generating greater involvement and support for local teams.
Duration over time
Regular maintenance of your sports pitch can increase its lifespan, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.

The maintenance of sports fields is an activity of primary importance that should not be overlooked. Even a sports ground created by professionals as a work of art will tend to deteriorate in a short time if not subjected to regular maintenance interventions. This would lead to further costs to remedy the damaged areas or even to completely renovate the area.
Ground that is kept in poor condition can also negatively impact the athletic performance of athletes and their physical safety.
