In the future I will never accept a full day (6 games) on this field.
I had about 5 HS games on artificial fields this season (these fields really saved us come playoff time when it was raining and the schools had to get their games in somewhere). I was thinking these were convenient now but would get hot in the summer. Turf gets your shoes clean, though.

To the OP: water, lots of water.
