Features of field tarps

Ever had to cancel a game because rains had drenched your grounds? With field tarps to offer you 100% ground protection, you need not allow rains to play foul with your games. A field tarp protects your ground from grass, dirt, sod, water, wind, fire and UV rays. Most field tarps are designed to withstand temperatures as low was -40 F. They can also stand up to winds as high as 65 mph.

The baseball tarp is the most common of all athletic field tarps. This is a heavy duty polyethylene tarp that is cut to look like a baseball diamond. These field tarps are used to protect the field from foul weather and strong winds. However, other field tarps are available to protect baseball and soccer fields. Generally, baseball tarps are made of polyethylene though other field tarps may be made from other materials like canvas.

Field tarps are so commonly used that some schools spend well over $10,000 to cover their fields during bad weather. Of course, many people balk at the thought of spending such a huge amount on field covers, but when it comes to buying tarps, the basic rule of quality over quantity must be adhered to.

Cheap tarps offer no guarantee to your fields. So, if you want to protect your field from sparks in a firework display, using cheap tarps may singe your ground. On the other hand, heavy duty field tarps can offer complete protection. They are generally quite heavy and may weigh up to 1,500 lbs. The weight varies according to size. A full infield tarp is the heaviest. Ideally, heavy duty field tarps have a thick polyethylene coating and have a very high mesh count (approx 14×14 weave).

One of the reasons people like to buy heavy duty tarps is durability and longevity. Heavy duty tarps last several seasons. Many poly tarps can easily last more than 6-8 years although the warranty period may be limited to 3-5 years. That is why many grounds make use of field tarps that are reinforced with chain lining and contain rust proof grommets. Field covers are wear, tear, fire and acid resistant.

Major leagues use a full length field cover, which in addition to protecting the field also protects the grass on the infield. If you want to protect more than your sports field, you need field tarps made for the mount, bullpen and plate.

Most field tarps are undergoing a lot of improvement even as we speak. This shows how popular these items are. For instance, baseball tarps are now shipping with chain lined edges that help keep the tarps on the ground. With these in place, you do not need stakes or sandbags to hold the tarp in place. In case of a sudden storm or wind, no time need be wasted in rolling out and securing these tarps.

Will they ever find a way to keep the track dry?

At Baseball games they have huge tarps rolled up on standby, once it starts to rain, they roll them over the field to keep it dry. Rain quits, they rollem back up, and play ball.

They could have something similar to a roll-out-awning that campers use mounted between the original outside wall and the safer barrier. that just pulls out and then rolls back up with the flick of a switch.

It may however be as quick to just use jet dryers.

They could also use blowers mounted on the inside of the safer barrier around the track that way it dries the whole track at one time. That would be costly though.

Sometimes simple is better.

The Amazing Flying Tarp – Coors Field

It is very easy to get into the habit of pulling off the ball. This is especially true for power hitters. Have you ever seen a power hitter hit a home run and thereafter, he can’t couch the ball? What happened? The home run took him out of himself. So as he pivots, he is also pivoting his head. Read the rest of it here: Click Here
