The Motz Group Completes Field for The Miami Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins are on solid footing every time they take the field this season.

The Motz Group recently rolled out its latest generation of artificial turf at the Dolphins’ new state-of-the-art indoor practice facility in Davie, Fla. According to Bryan Wiedmeier, president, Miami Dolphins’, Ltd., the project is further evidence of the Dolphins’ dedication to lead the NFL in providing the best possible facilities and training practices for their athletes.

The 96,600 square-foot air-supported “bubble” – the first of its kind in South Florida - includes a regulation football field featuring the company’s premium 24/7™ synthetic turf. It is made with TC Thiolon’s new XP Pro yarn that resists splitting and offers enhanced wear ability. A blended infill consisting of 75% rubber and 25% sand provides a firm-playing surface, while an underlying rubber elastic layer improves performance and safety. The inlaid markings duplicate those on the Dolphin Stadium game-day field.

“The field looks terrific,” said Brad Pritchard, superintendent for Stiles Corporation of Ft. Lauderdale, general contractor for the facility. He attributes the successful field completion to Motz executives’ rare hands-on approach. “Not only did they do everything possible to ensure we met our tight three-week timeline, they always took responsibility and personally supervised the installation.”

The Motz Group has a 20-year history of installing premium quality turf products in the United States and abroad. “They are detail-oriented and stand behind their work,” said Alan Sigwardt, senior director of grounds and engineering for Dolphin Stadium.
“Working with The Motz Group was an easy decision for us.”

The Motz Group is recognized internationally for the design and construction of artificial and natural turf athletic fields. The company is located in Newtown, Ohio.
