Could of sworn they were supposed to have a heated turf to match BMO's pitch at their high tech training ground....or did I just imagine that? If so why the training on turf on the better weather days. I know there haven't been many good days though. Maybe they should spend some time at BMO if they really need the grass right now. Get used to the "sticky" pitch.

For those with kids between 6 and 12, we have two (and maybe a third) spot open for player escorts this weekend.

Please PM me for details, or check the commuications thread.

^^ They have both a heated grass field as well as artificial turf fields at Downsview. The problem is, now they have to play indoors/under the bubble due to the weather. The bubble is over the artificial turf field. Plus despite the heat & drainage, the grass field likely needs time to grow & settle in the spring, and the bad weather doesn't help with that either. They have heat but not artificial growing lights. BMO Field also doesn't look too great yet either.

we can send a man to the moon, but we cant get artificial grass to feel like the real thing?

I think the poor weather coupled with the full pitch replacement and undersoil exchange for drainage has taken a toll on the new pitch. Hopefully its fixed soon.

The genius is getting around to it.

Its only depends weather conditions that it is not allowed you to play the game outdoor.
We just have to enjoy the game in uncomfortable circumstances.
