Year round play has led to ever increasing demands on golf courses and sports grounds. Nearly fifty years ago, the United States Golf Association (USGA) began research into the best construction for golf greens, to facilitate maximum play and satisfactory grass growth. Sport has become increasingly more popular throughout the world. High levels of play on golf greens, and other sports surfaces, have contributed to increased wear, especially during wet conditions in winter. The use of sand as an ameliorating material has become widespread for rootzones in order to ensure a free draining growing medium. Sand is used in a range of sports surfaces and sports grounds.
