Quote from a FieldTurf 2500 Release - "Gone are the days of playing soccer in dirt towards the end of the season and having to deal with divots on the field.

“Being the 2500th installation for a company as respected as FieldTurf is something special and we are more than glad to be a part of this historic milestone,” said Boca Raton Community High School Athletic Director Bill Massey. “Our athletes have played on many kinds of turf. They overwhelmingly prefer FieldTurf surfaces to other turf systems. Once I started researching synthetic turf, we knew we wanted nothing but the best and that’s exactly what we got with FieldTurf. Having FieldTurf will no doubt add to the prestige of our facility and will allow us to expand our horizons in terms of hosting more games and events in the future. FieldTurf provides a world class playing field and our community will be thrilled with our state-of-the-art field”

“We are ecstatic that our 2500th installation will be on the grounds of Boca Raton Community High School,” said FieldTurf Tarkett CEO David Moszkowski. “It is a great accomplishment for our team to have reached this number - but we will never rest on our laurels. We knew just how much our late CEO John Gilman wanted to work with Boca Raton Community High School to ensure they got the best product on the market. We know how much this would have meant to him. We continue to strive to always deliver the very best surface to all of our customers around the world. We tackle every job with the same excitement and dedication as if it were our first. All of us at FieldTurf are celebrating our 2500th worldwide installation, and we’re happy that Boca Raton Community High School brought us to this milestone!”

Everybody at the school board that was involved with the project was thrilled with Balfour-Beatty Construction and Ballard Sports for the great job that they did on this project. They are truly best in class and top notch professionals, having built and installed a beautiful field for Boca Raton Community High School."
