I like the red infield turf compared to the dark brown we had previously. Goes better with our school colors. Facility looks great!Quote:

Is the mound turf too? If so, doesn't seem like the pitchers would like pitching off of it.Quote:

Yes. Turf.Quote:

High schools and travel ball complexes have been going to these because there is no mound maintenance and they can continue games for a much longer time period when the weather does not cooperate. So, we will be fine. And I’d there is a slight issue, because we will be practicing from that type of mound, it may even create a slight home field advantage.Quote:

Little known info. ;)
The water hose was located under the dirt pitchers mound
Some pitchers have been so aggressive on the mound it almost took a mound rebuild after every inning, which does not happen and had to be pitched through. That is no longer a worry.Quote:
