Sports Turf in Jacksonville, FL
Why Artificial Turf Is Replacing Natural Grass on Athletic Fields
Artificial turf has been replacing natural grass across all levels of professional and recreational athletic fields—and for good reason. Artificial turf sports fields offer numerous advantages, including high durability with virtually no downtime, significantly reduced water usage, lower maintenance costs, and improved overall performance. Athletes also benefit from enhanced gameplay and a reduced risk of injury, making artificial turf a smart and reliable choice for sports facilities of all kinds.

Highly Durable with Virtually No Down Time
Artificial turf athletic fields are versatile and can withstand back to back games and practices. If you manage a busy venue and are are constantly organizing multiple sporting events, the necessary field recovery, over-seeding, mowing, maintenance and watering time can limit or interfere with your packed calendar. Artificial turf takes all of those delays out of the equation.
Reduced Water Needs, Cost and Maintenance, Improved Performance
Maintenance costs, especially water use, are much higher for natural grass fields than for synthetic grass surfaces. Natural grass also requires frequent fertilizing, mowing, seeding and pest control, which can cost thousands of dollars in materials and labor.
What’s more, after installation, artificial turf is ready for use on day one and keeps looking great for years to come with very little upkeep required. With natural grass, high traffic areas will wear down causing patchy areas, mud, rock hazards, and inconsistent play. None of these problems associated with natural grass are present with a quality artificial turf field.
Improved Game Play and Reduced Injury Impact
Our quality synthetic sports turf, and carefully planned padding and underlayment, enhances the consistency of the field, greatly reduces the accumulation of rocks and other surface debris, eliminates patches of dirt and mud, and makes for more predictable ball roll, with fewer injuries to players.

Frequently Asked Questions About Artificial Sports Turf from Jax Outdoor Solutions
What types of sports turf systems does Jax Outdoor Solutions offer?
Jax Outdoor Solutions provides a variety of artificial sports turf options for different sports and usage demands. These include turf systems engineered for soccer, football, baseball/softball, lacrosse, multi-purpose fields, and training facilities. Each turf system is designed with appropriate fiber height, density, infill options, and shock-absorption characteristics to meet sport-specific performance needs.
How does artificial sports turf compare to conventional grass for athletic use?
Artificial sports turf performs consistently under frequent use, heavy foot traffic, and wet weather conditions without the recovery time conventional grass requires. Unlike traditional turf, synthetic turf offers uniform playing surfaces, fewer muddy or bare patches, and more predictable ball roll and bounce, making it ideal for organized sports and extended practice schedules. It also significantly reduces the need for watering, mowing, and ongoing field repair.
Is artificial sports turf safe for athletes?
At Jax Outdoor Solutions, our team installs turf systems that prioritize player safety and performance. Many systems include shock-absorbing underlayments and infill products that help reduce impact forces, improving traction and reducing the risk of injuries related to slips or uneven ground. Additionally, quality turf fibers and infill minimize abrasions and burns during play.
How long does sports turf last in Jacksonville, FL?
With proper installation from our experts and some routine maintenance, synthetic sports turf typically can last for years, depending on usage frequency, sport type, and environmental conditions. High-traffic areas may wear faster, but regular grooming and infill replenishment can help extend the useful life of the turf.

Our Clients Love Us!
Jax Outdoor Solutions did an awesome job installing a 2500 sq ft putting green complex. Putting surface, fringe, rough, faux sand bunkers and lights. What a great amenity to have in my backyard. Kyle and his crew communicated often and I never had to hunt them down or wonder if they were showing up. Great job!
Greg Weitz
We cannot say enough about the incredible job that JAX Outdoor Solutions did on our back yard project. We had artificial turf, a 3 hole putting green and landscaping done. AMAZING! Kyle and Spencer were so easy to work with and so friendly and helpful. We consider ourselves to be pretty particular and they knocked it out of the park. 10/10! We would highly recommend them to anyone!
Teresa Davis
I gave Kyle a budget and he designed a great putting green within the budget. The work was completed on time and as described, the crew cleaned up the area afterwards, and as an extra bonus, Kyle is a really nice guy! Not everyone in the household golfs but we have been in our yard almost every day since the project was completed, chipping and putting. Highly recommend!
