HOCKEY

ABS Sports Fields evolved from the construction of Hockey Fields. It was the challenges of designing, constructing and building Hockey Fields for “hockey experts” that created the drive and vision for the ABS renowned quality systems used across all Synthetic Sports Surfaces.

Today many Hockey Fields are not purely for the use of hockey players, with many built with lines and markings for several other sports, enabling extended usage of the facility to a broader section of the community.

The sport of hockey, requires a true and fast surface, with extremely intensive use, demanding excellent durability during all weathers.

ABS Sports Fields builds both wet and hybrid sand filled systems.

A poorly designed sports facility may initially stand up for a few years, but more often than not a poorly designed fields which is less than functional for the uses they were intended for often require heavy renovation work within just a year or two.

Much of the renovation work we do at ABS Sports Fields is due to poorly designed fields that actually needed the work 3 or more years before the owners were able to put together the proper capital to have the work done. There are plenty of ways to try and save money on a build project but design and grading is not one of them.

All sports fields require regular maintenance. Just like golf greens and tees, sports fields are high use, high performance areas. Indeed, when a field is in poor conditions it is more likely to have a negative impact on the players as well, causing injuries, making them focus on their own safety instead of developing their skills.
