Major Play® Matrix Helix® is the unmatched synthetic turf system created specifically for baseball and softball. The video helps demonstrate that Major Play turf allows for consistent and predictable ball response that players enjoy.

Hellas installed Major Play® Matrix® Helix® at Santa Fe High School’s baseball field as the Demons prepare for the 2023 season. Major Play Matrix Helix delivers consistent and predictable ball response and a shock-absorbent field of play.

Hellas installed Major Play® Matrix® Helix® in the outfield and bullpen areas at Santa Fe High School. In addition to the consistent and predictable ball response in the outfield area, the Helix Technology used when manufacturing the turf adds memory and strength to fibers, allowing them to spring back quickly after use, and extending the life of the field.

Construction on the baseball and softball fields included removal of the existing sod followed by grading, adding new drainstone, improving drainage, replacing old perimeter boards with Eco Nailer®, laying Major Play® Matrix® Helix turf and adding Realfill™ infill. Hellas will complete installation with new bases and field markings.

Manufactured by Hellas Construction, the Major Play Matrix Helix synthetic turf system was created specifically for baseball and softball. Major Play Matrix Helix delivers consistent and predictable ball response and a shock-absorbent field of play. Helix Technology used when manufacturing the turf adds memory and strength to fibers, allowing them to spring back quickly after use, and extending the life of the field.

Realfill infill is made of pea gravel and dust-free cuboidal SBR rubber that has a deliberate shape and size designed to minimize migration. Realfill offers a uniform, predictable playing surface with a consistent Gmax throughout the life cycle of the field.

Santa Fe High School is part of the US Department of Education Green Ribbon Sustainable Santa Fe program so Eco Nailers is a perfect choice for this project. Eco Nailers is a 100% recycled replacement nailer board that replaces the use of wooden 2×4’s. Eco Nailers is water resistant, and will not rot, mildew, decay, or warp under extreme freeze-thaw cycles.
