UCM JENNIES SOCCER FIELD KEPT DRY DURING RAINY WEATHER

Warrensburg, MO - Located in Warrensburg, Missouri, the University of Central Missouri (UCM) offers 150 academic programs in a wide range of studies from cyber defense to performing arts, government and international studies, business studies, education, and health, science, and technology. Athletics include Mules (men) football, baseball, basketball, and wresting and Jennies (women) softball, basketball, volleyball, and soccer. Teams compete in NCAA Division II.

Ranked #15 in 2023 and finishing second in the Mid–America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA) during the regular season, the Jennies soccer team look forward to another competitive season in 2024. Like any NCCA Division II soccer team, the condition of the pitch they play on is always a prime consideration. When looking for a soccer field cover for their 80 yds by 120 yds soccer pitch, COVERMASTER® was contacted for the best solution.

UCM ordered five sections of RAINCOVER PREMIER™ field covers from COVERMASTER® for a total of 86,000 square feet. Known to be over 260 pounds lighter on a full-size soccer pitch than comparable 6-ounce fabric alternatives, RAINCOVER PREMIER™ field tarps provides superior performance and is easier to install and remove by fewer grounds crew. By using SUR-GRIP WEB HANDLES that are located every 15 feet, the load of the rain on the surface of RAINCOVER PREMIER™ can be distributed more evenly as it's removed from the field. It’s one more way to ensure the pitch is ready for Jennies soccer!
