NVSC to Break Ground on Turf Stadium Field
USL Reaffirms Partnership with Sprinturf
Heading into its third year of the deal, United Soccer Leagues and Sprinturf reaffirmed their partnership that makes Sprinturf an Official Supplier and the Official Turf Supplier of United Soccer Leagues.
 
USL’s Northern Virginia Majestics (W-League) and Royals (PDL), along with their local youth club affiliate, the Northern Virginia Soccer Club, are the latest organizations to contract with Sprinturf. Groundbreaking on the new field in George Hellwig Memorial Park in Prince William County, VA will begin later this month.

Sprinturf designs, manufactures, installs and services artificial turf systems that look, feel and play like natural grass – but are safer and far more durable. In addition to providing athletic surfaces, Sprinturf also offers a variety of other synthetic turf products for playgrounds, landscaping, golf greens and tees and recreational areas.
 
“We continue to be proud of our partnership with one of the top turf suppliers in the market,” said USL Executive Vice President and COO Tim Holt. “We feel Sprinturf offers our member clubs with the greatest opportunity to compete and conduct business year-round on outdoor and indoor fields that are in outstanding condition, unaffected by weather or amount of use.” 

“Sprinturf has proven to be a leading provider for many other sports and we are continually striving to improve field quality of soccer facilities around the United States and Canada through our partnership with USL, a leader in a fast-growing sport,” said Sprinturf Director of Soccer Development Jim Kilmeade. “Having previously served as an executive on a team and league level with USL, I know first hand the importance of having the highest quality turf available for the players and fans of the game.”

The partnership also made Sprinturf the title sponsor of the USL Executive of the Year honors for the USL First and Second Divisions, Premier Development League and W-League awarded at the USL Annual General Meeting held each November in Tampa, Florida. Other elements of the partnership include field signage at USL Championship events and promotional features for Sprinturf on the USL National Broadcast Package.

Supporting USL’s commitment to bring soccer to every community in North America, Sprinturf offers USL teams a variety of state-of-the-art playing surfaces specifically engineered for soccer to help teams maximize their ability to conduct business and execute programming. In addition to the Sprinturf fields at Pizza Hut Park (the home of MLS’ FC Dallas), DC United’s practice field by RFK Stadium and Long Island’s Mitchel Stadium, their impressive client list includes such notables as the Philadelphia Eagles, Auburn University and the Ohio State University. Within USL, Sprinturf is currently utilized at James Griffin Stadium, home of the Minnesota Thunder.
