One of Nation’s Smallest Schools – West Jefferson High in Terreton, ID -- Boasts Biggest Name in Turf: TigerTurf

08/05/2007
West Jefferson High School’s 220 students, and the surrounding Terreton, Idaho, community, are using their new TigerTurf monofilament system for football, soccer, P.E., track and more.

The school opted for TigerTurf monofilament based on architect recommendations and the company’s reputation for quality.

Comments from Frank Bunce, Athletic Director, West Jefferson High School:

 “It’s a wonderful facility – the kids absolutely love it. It’s much more forgiving than the grass we had under our conditions.

We’ve probably already experienced a decrease in injuries with the TigerTurf.

We had a tight timeline on the project; everyone had to work together efficiently to complete the job.

Academy Sports was very responsive to our needs; the quality of their work was excellent. They didn’t hesitate to put in long days to accommodate our deadline.”

Comments from Larry Soderquist, Maintenance Supervisor, West Jefferson High School:

“The field’s cushioning is a great asset, as is the ability to play on it in inclement weather. It drains well, there is no puddling on the surface, and its low maintenance was a critical selling point.

Academy Sports Turf did an excellent job installing it. They took care of business in a very professional manner. I would definitely recommend them to others.”
