Australian take on deciding between natural and synthetic

Are you currently involved in a discussion to decide if your facility should install natural or synthetic turf? Are there people in the discussion with a “hidden agenda” that might derail a robust discussion of the facts? The Cornell Safe Sports Fields Website has an excellent section on bullet pointed facts worth considering. However a comprehensive review of the issue was developed by the Dept. of Sport and Recreation of Western Australia that will help guide your decision making process based on factual data and information you provide to determine best surface. You can access it at http://www.dsr.wa.gov.au/support-and-advice/facility-management/ developing-facilities/synthetic-turf-decision-guide
