SFMA announced two new Resource Centers, available through the SFMA Member portal and administered through the Canvas app.

Whether you’re looking to sharpen your skills, explore best practices, or stay current with industry tools, this resource center is here to help.

SFMA’s Synthetic Turf Management Resource Center is your go-to destination for trusted education, tools, and industry resources — all in one place. Whether you’re new to synthetic surfaces or an experienced professional, this center is designed to support every stage of field management. From construction to maintenance, safety to sustainability, SFMA is here to help you make informed decisions and manage high-performing synthetic fields with confidence.
