K.R.C. GENK F.C. FENDS OFF FROST DAMAGE ON ITS FOOTBALL PITCHES

Genk, Belgium - Belgian football club benefits from COVERMASTER® frost covers for football pitches.

Bordered by the Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg, and France, Belgium has a population of nearly 12-million in an area of close to 12-million square miles. Like many European countries, football is a popular sport and one such Belgian Pro League football club, K.R.C. Genk FC, is a big fan of COVERMASTER®. The 5-time Belgian League and 5-time Belgian Cup champion depends on COVERMASTER® sports ground frost covers to protect its turf pitches.

Recently, Genk F.C. ordered three sections of 70’ by 230' and two sections of 80’ by 230’ COVERMASTER® EVERGREEN® RADIANT TURF COVERS for their pitches. Originally developed for harsh conditions, these frost covers for football pitches will provide protection against their turf drying out from windy conditions, the possibility of severe erosion, and the harmful effects of winter kill and frost. It’s a quick, easy, and effective way to provide maximum turf protection.

By monitoring for sudden frost conditions, these sports ground frost covers can be installed quickly using their COVERMASTER® TARPMATE AIR™ ROLLERS and can remain in place until normal temperature conditions are reached. It is a cost-effective way of lowering maintenance costs during turf dormancy and providing earlier green ups for spring openings. Frost conditions don’t stand a chance against the protection provided by COVERMASTER® EVERGREEN® RADIANT TURF COVERS.
