The Institute

The Institute of SportsField Management is the industry’s hub promoting field safety and the sports field profession at large. A comprehensive collection of resources covering all aspects of operations is available to match the growing responsibilities of SFMA members, as they advance to facility managers. From technical resources covering natural turfgrass and synthetic surfaces to professional development and management resources, the Institute promotes a shared vision by contributing best practices and insights for the greater good.

SFMA’s National BMPs, Best Management Practices for the Sports Field Manager: A Professional Guide for Sports Field Management , can be found Here! The BMPs provide chapters and our membership at-large with the tools and resources to document solid environmental practices for legislators, regulators, employers and community constituents. Although members have been following excellent practices, this program validates those and positions the Sports Field Manager as a strong steward of the environment, which will aid in educating decision makers.
