Laying the Brock Pad

Installing the Brock Pad is the final step before the artificial turn can be installed. The Brock pad provides shock absorption allowing us to use a 40mm turf for a FIFA 2 star rating, the highest currently awarded by FIFA. A second critical benefit to the Brock pad is it's excellent drainage both vertical and horizontally reducing the cost of field drainage.

Over 5,000 pieces of Brock pad was installed.
