New Focus of Football turf Tests - Surface Interaction Requirements

Player / Surface Interaction Tests on Artificial Football turf The characteristics of a surface that a football player needs to play the game fall into several categories. The football turf testing for player/surface interaction consists of shock absorbency, vertical deformation, slip resistance, traction and sliding distance.

Ball / Surface Interaction Tests for Artificial Football turf There are three categories that define the performance of a football on the football turf surface. The tests that measure these are vertical ball rebound, football roll and angled ball behavior.

Shock Absorption: of Football turf Measures the impact absorption provided by the surface to a player running or falling on it.

Football turf's Vertical Deformation: Measures the stability of the surface as a player runs across it.

Football turf Traction: Measures the interaction between the shoe sole and the surface relating to the ability of a player to change direction.

Slip resistance scale of Football turf: It is a measure of the ability of the studs to slide through the surface without causing the player to slip over.

Slip resistance deceleration of Football turf: Measures the deceleration experienced by the players boot as it makes contact with the surface. If the deceleration is too high then damage to joints and ligaments may occur.

Football turf vertical ball rebound: Measures how high the ball bounces when falling vertically.

Ball roll on Football turf: Measures how far the ball rolls.

Angel ball behavior: Measures how the ball rebounds from the artificial football turf surface when striking it at a shallow angle under dry and wet conditions.

Friction change: Measures the abrasiveness of the artificial Football turf surface to the players skin.

Coefficient of friction of Football turf: Measures the potential of a surface to cause a skin burn to the player .The higher the recorded coefficient of friction the greater is the potential that a skin burn will occur.
