FAQ
What pile height works best for field hockey?
A 13/16 inch pile height offers the best balance of surface speed and comfort for dedicated practice.
Can I practice field hockey on artificial turf at home?
Yes. Artificial grass for hockey can be rolled out over soil, concrete, or compacted gravel to create a practice area in your backyard. No field rental fees, no scheduling, and no maintenance like watering or mowing.
Can you play field hockey on artificial grass?
Yes. Options like the Cricket Pitch Mat (3/8 inch pile height) are built to deliver consistent ball bounce and smooth roll that simulate professional pitch conditions. The UV-resistant, fast-draining surface holds up to regular stick work and active play in any weather.
Is artificial grass for hockey durable enough to handle stick drag and cleats?
Yes. All options feature PP or PP and PE grass blades with a multi-layer backing of PP, netting, and SBR latex rubber. This construction resists wear from repeated stick contact, foot traffic, and athletic footwear.
Can field hockey turf be left outside all year?
Yes. The turf features UV-resistant fibers and built-in drainage holes throughout the rubber backing, staying fresh through sun, shade, and all seasons without fading or puddle buildup.
How do I install and secure field hockey turf?
Prepare a level base, roll out the turf, trim to fit your space, and secure edges using 6 inch turf staples available in 50-count or 200-count packs. For joining multiple rolls or laying turf on concrete, use Artificial Turf Seam Tape, available in double-sided and single-sided options. The turf can also be laid over asphalt or other hard surfaces where the rubber backing grips and drainage holes allow moisture to run off.
Can hockey turf be used for other sports and activities?
Yes. Field hockey turf is suitable for backyard practice zones, school training areas, and other outdoor sports and activities.
How do I clean and maintain hockey grass after regular use?
Simply clean the surface with water. The turf is washable and easy to maintain. Drainage holes prevent puddles and ensure quick drying, keeping the surface ready for use with minimal upkeep.
Is field hockey turf safe for kids and young players?
Yes. The turf is made from fire-retardant PP material and provides a soft, cushioned surface safe for bare feet, kids, and pets. It also does not attract bugs, making it a practical option for outdoor play areas.
Can I combine multiple turf rolls to cover a larger area?
Yes. Rolls come in widths of 6ft and 12ft, with lengths from 20ft to 50ft, and can be trimmed to fit any space.
