U.S. Field Hockey National Training Center at Virginia Beach

Established through a joint partnership between Virginia Beach and USA Field Hockey, the USA Field Hockey Training Center features two artificial turf fields, lighting, offices and locker rooms, parking and an equipment room. Construction on the project began in late spring, 2001.
In September, 2008, the USA Field Hockey Training Facility took a proactive stance to combat Staph and MRSA infection with the professional application of GamePlan-4-Turf complete antimicrobial system for synthetic turf fields from Pioneer Athletics and mPact Environmental Solutions.

To prepare the field for the antimicrobial treatment, it was first disinfected with mPerial® Disinfectant/Detergent. Next, a two-tiered, electrostatic boom sprayer was used to apply GamePlan-4-Turf to the field. GamePlan-4-Turf's key component is powered by ÆGIS Microbe Sheild®, the most advanced, EPA registered antimicrobial available.
The system creates an invisible barrier on synthetic turf fields to control or eliminate the growth of a wide array of bacteria, mold and mildew - and it is warranted for 2 years between applications.
