New partnership — McKinney Christian Academy in McKinney, Texas.

Athletic fields in July. Full campus grounds in August. Baseball, softball, soccer, and more.

Two SFS service lines. One school. Excited for this one.

The players and coaches get the spotlight. The turf managers make it possible.

Zack Williamson at Baylor Ballpark and Corey Diaz at Roadrunner Field have both had outstanding seasons managing two of the best college baseball surfaces in Texas.

Proud of both of them.

Flower beds installed. Spring color changes done. Southwest Christian School’s Lakeside Campus in Fort Worth looking sharp. Our Mobile Maintenance team handles more than athletic fields — and they bring the same standard to everything they do.

Canceled games cost more than you think. Field manager’s day wasted. Team travel bills. Angry constituents.

Most drainage problems are fixable — but you have to start somewhere. Sports Field Solutions can help.

It's been a wet week in Texas. Going back to some blue-sky days at St. Edwards University — Kaden Honeycutt, softball and baseball, both fields dialed in.

Have patience, brighter days are coming.

Circling a date on the calendar isn't a transition plan.

Here are the 6 field indicators experienced turf managers actually use before pulling the trigger on spring transition.

A few weeks ago this field wasn’t ready.

Tuesday night Mabank ISD played their first home game in it.

This is why we do it. Good luck the rest of the season, Panthers.

New partnership announcement 🤝

We’re excited to be working with Episcopal High School and @EHSSports in Houston to help maintain safe, high-quality playing surfaces for their athletes.

Proud to support another great Texas program.

[Sports Field Solutions @SFSturf_pros]

From Mabank ISD Principal Michael Rowland after the project:

“it felt like an impossible job given the time of year and the time restraints. Sports Field Solutions showed tremendous patience and grit… and we even got on the field a week earlier than expected.”

[Sports Field Solutions @SFSturf_pros]

“The final job surpassed my expectations, and the surface became something high school students dream of playing on.”

[Sports Field Solutions @SFSturf_pros]

In January, Mabank HS called with a problem:

Their baseball field wasn’t safe or playable — and the season was approaching fast.

Harvested the turf. Regraded the surface. Installed overseeded bermuda sod.

Now it looks like this.

Swipe to see the turnaround.

[Sports Field Solutions @SFSturf_pros]

A month ago, this field was recovering from a snow & ice storm.

Two weeks ago, Baylor hosted SFA.

Quick-release 21-7-14, EarthMAX + Floratine apps, a slight HOC drop, and solid-tine aeration helped spark the rebound.

Great work by Turf Manager Zack Williamson and crew.

Calcined clay’s microscopic pores act like a sponge—absorbing water quickly and helping fields recover faster after rain.

Best uses:
• During wet weather
• Removing standing water
• Speeding up post-rain recovery

Once saturated, though, calcined clay stops absorbing water

@ConnorSmith_UNT @MeanGreenSB @camismith13 Love that field and that scoreboard sponsor! 🧐

[Sean Snedeker @snedeker33]

So fortunate to play daily on one of the nicest fields in the country! Our grounds crew takes great pride and does a tremendous job making it look this good! @BaylorBaseball
