Each year 150 Million TV viewers, about half the population of the United States, watch the most important match in American football: the Superbowl. Originally based on the game of rugby, American football has grown into one of the most popular sports in North America.

Avoiding typical problems
In American football the idea of the game is to gain ground, score a touchdown or kick a field goal. This means that the players can often spend a lot of time in contact with the football field, literally. Although nothing can replace the feel of natural grass, going down the artificial route avoids such problems as threadbare patches, puddles and muddy areas.

Dependable sports field
The use of artificial grass in American football is widespread in the United States. Famous clubs such as the Denver Broncos (pdf), Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles equip their training and stadium pitches with either synthetic grass or reinforced natural grass. For such a high impact sport it is of the utmost importance that the pitch takes the players' comfort and safety into account. The artificial grass fibres are developed in such a way that the risk of burns and other injuries are reduced to the absolute minimum.
