文摘The aim of this analysis is to compare and contrast the differences and similarities of the construction and maintenance of soccer fields, from both technical and economic points of view. Authors studied two samples： the first with totally modified top soil following the USGA （United States Golf Association） Specifications, all new top soil, as in USGA, called the Texas method; the second sample was natural soil mixed with ammendants and sand, in order to reduce compaction. This study compares the initial investments, performance during training and finally the cost of maintenance. The drainage system was the same for both samples.
