How do soccer pitches have those designs and patterns on the grass when seen on tv?

The groundsmen have begun spraying the pitches with water a little while before kick-off. This is intended to make passes a lot sharper and quicker over both short and long distances, and this does happen. However, it also makes the pitch much more slippery, which is why we've been seeing a lot of people falling over.

Hard ground would be a super-dry clay-ish field where the grass is pretty dead. If you can stomp your foot on the ground and it's almost like stomping on a tile floor or concrete that's hard ground. A firm ground field is a dry normal soccer field. You don't sink into it, but you can stomp your foot and make a bit of an impression.\n\nGreg

They roll it in different directions with a heavy roller. It looks like it's different colors becuase of the way the grass is bent.

Variety is the spice of life. I'm not really sure...maybe it's to make sure than one side isn't worn more than the other, easier to play/run on, and both are given a better chance at a fair game by doing so, not to mentio the ecological factors such as glare from the sun, and wind direction. That's totally a guess.

Yup the grass was grown by a farm in the Netherlands, but Fifa has refused to disclose the farm's location cos the Germany-Netherlands rivalry might cause some diehards Dutch fans to try and sabotage the farm for "betraying" the country.

I'm not sure this is what you're looking for, but I think so...\n\nI did find them using Google (try "soccer emblems"), but there doesn't seem to be an all inclusive site to finding them.  If there is a need for such a website, maybe you should consider building one?\n\nGood Luck!

the process is called line striping. you need two pieces of equipment to do this: a mower and a roller. i've also seen on 'This Week in Baseball', some teams actually use GPS (don't ask me how) to make sure the lines are straight and true. three reasons why i can never get my yard to look like turner field....

That's because the grass is wet. This may come from the rain. Or i have heard, that they water the grass in the stadium till half an hour before the players come out, so that the grass doesn't dry out. \nThe grass becomes slippery, because it is cut very short and the player lose the grip, when water is between the grass and the shoe.

I know this dosen't sound right, but it works.\n\nGo to google and search NASCAR Wallpapers. I told you it dosen't sound right.\n\nPick the first website on there. You'll appear on a wallpaper screen. Then you go to the settings and you'll find soccer wallpapers. They also have screensavers too.

there one soocer trick i have learned that is helpful and good 4 showing off. i dont no the exact name of it but most people call it the rainbow. you take the soccer balland position it betwwen ur two legs. u use ur right or left legs to slid the ball upward to the heel of ur foot then with the same foot that the ball is in u push it upwards at a angle so the soccer ball goes over u. it is use when trying to get pass someone and embrassing them at the same time. it is hard to learn. it took me a couple of yrs. to learn but it a showstopper if u get it. good luck.
