Helmond Sport Goes for GreenFields MX

Helmond Sport Goes for GreenFields MX

Starting next season, matches at the Lavans football stadium in Helmond will be played on GreenFields MX. The reason why the club chose GreenFields MX is that artificial grass is much more flexible. All the teams can train on the main pitch. According to Mario Captein, the general manager of Helmond Sport, another factor that played a role was the large number of matches that had to be cancelled last winter. The artificial grass pitch also offers possibilities for expanding the functionality of the present sports complex, such as hosting special events or organising football clinics. Because the new pitch means all the activities can now be centralised, the Lavans stadium will come alive with even more football action.
