Doing a little research project...could you guys please help me out and fill me in on who has turf fields and who has grass.
Also, if your team has an indoor turf facility, please tell me how big it is.
Thanks guys!
Wynne has turf field and turf indoor field I think we are about a 30 yard field
Batesville has turf and about a 50 yard (or close I think) indoor turf facility

The indoor facility is 70 yards. It goes from 40 to 50 to 40 and on down to the goal line and 10 yard end zone. The friends of the Pioneers took some money out of the Ref fund and sprung for the extra 20 yards.

Priorities I guess. Maybe we didn't need to pay refs as much the following year. Must've had more away games. I'll tell ya, that Watson chapel year about broke us.
Vilonia seemed like one of the first to put in turf in 2011. Indoor old ragged turf and very small unless it was upgraded recently.
Here are all the school that have turf in 5A that I know of
5A East
Turf
Batesville
Wynne
Blytheville
Forrest city I think
G.C.T.
Paragould
Nettleton
Valley view
Not sure why it is all white, but this might help.

All football schools in the 5A east have turf fields
Did Wynne go ahead and get their field in that dead yellow color that the grass field always appeared when we played them?
LRCA has had turf for 10 years and just got an indoor this year.
Pa has turf, no practice facility and I am guessing, but it has probably the smallest weight room or one of the smallest in 5A.
They just work harder with what they have.......😜

....had to decide between home game parking/seating for Maynard's Limo and entourage or a practice facility.....oh well :-\

PA has an impressive weight room for its size. I'm sure if Kelley thought they needed more they would have it.
PA has a nice field, nice weight room and bleachers that can comfortably hold up to 27 visiting fans. Let's not forget that 200 yard hike down a gravely embankment to the visiting teams locker room.

That's odd that you can't just block the whole thing with the color=black and /color tags. I'm not an html guru though.
Maumelle has turf. No indoor facility though. Those went to Robinson and Mills.
The real question should be, who below 5A has turf?

Rison (3A) has turf. No indoor though.
I think Mineral Springs has turf as well.
If I'm not mistaken Osceola did as well.
Several below 5A do.
Hot Springs has turf. And PA needs a bigger stadium. All those championships.

Just saw where V is replacing the old turf right now. They said on FB anyone wanting to have rolls of the old turf to bring their heavy duty trailers to the stadium to get it today. Old turf was installed in 2011, my oldest son's SR year.
Watson Chapel has a Turf field and an indoor Turf practice facility but I'm not sure about the size of the indoor Turf.
All the 5A South Schools have turf except for DeQueen and Magnolia. Hope has a outstanding indoor facility with turf. Magnolia, Camden Fairview, HSL, all have Indoor Facilities. Im not sure about what LR McClellan has.
