2022 Sports Turf Field Day at The University of Alabama

The Alabama Turfgrass Association’s 2022 Sports Turf Field Day will be held on the campus of The University of Alabama on July 13. Please make plans to join us in Tuscaloosa for an outstanding opportunity to view the Crimson Tide playing fields!

The program will feature Alabama Softball Head Coach Patrick Murphy. Coach Murphy was there at the origin of the program, having been present from the very inception to where it stands today. And certainly, nobody can claim to have brought a program further, and in shorter time, than Crimson Tide head softball coach Patrick Murphy, who entered his 24th season as the program’s leader in 2022. From a humble start to a national championship, Murphy has taken Alabama to the top of the college softball world. Beginning with his days as an assistant in the very first years of the Alabama softball program, Murphy has emerged as the face of a team that has grown under his leadership to become one of the most consistently successful programs in the nation.

In addition to Coach Murphy there will be a representative from Football Operations to speak. Jon DeWitt, CSFM and his assistant, Drew Charcandy will give a first-hand look at their carefully groomed UA athletic fields.

There will be opportunities for sponsors to use the practice fields for the exhibition of equipment. Lunch and speakers will be in the North End Zone inside Bryant- Denny stadium.
