Sporting Surfaces Dealer Rec-Turf Gains Competitive Advantage Through New Website: New Website and Brand Identity Propels Rec-Turf Onto a New Playing Field










Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) February 27, 2009

Sometimes the grass is truly greener on the other side of the fence. For sporting surfaces provider Rec-Turf Inc., their re-engineered website is proving to be a winner. Rec-Turf is the official exclusive dealer of Polytan and associated artificial surface systems throughout the West Coast of the USA. But visually presenting the high-quality outdoor and indoor turf systems and running tracks has proven to be a challenge for Rec-Turf. Without showrooms, a highly functional and appealing website is key.

Enter: Solocube Creative Group. The Vancouver-based Internet & Creative Design agency applied a comprehensive approach to produce a cutting edge website for Rec-Turf, http://www.recturf.com, which is now receiving top rankings in search engine optimization and enhancing their clients’ online experiences.

“We wanted the ability to showcase our previously completed projects, while introducing our customers to the new products on offer,” explains Rec-Turf’s marketing manager, Chris Waine. “Now we have a unique platform for clients to view our products and services, thereby differentiating Rec-Turf from other artificial turf companies.”

In conjunction with the website re-development, Solocube helped Rec-Turf re-brand, developing a new logo, marketing collateral, print ads and a trade show booth. The result? A strong unified brand and a seamless interaction for customers. Ivan Dancourt, Creative Director for Solocube credits the project’s overall goal as the impetus for success: “Our goal was to create a strong new brand presence for the company and give it a fresh start in the Artificial Turf industry in the US. We aimed for continuity from the website through to the print and marketing materials. And I think we have achieved exactly that,” he states. Seems the grass really can be greener after all.

Foot Injuries Plague Athletes During Fall Sports Season

Foot Injuries Plague Athletes During Fall Sports Season











Those playing fall sports, such as football, should be proactive about their foot safety on the field.


Bethesda, MD (Vocus) September 11, 2008

With the 2008-09 football season still in its fledgling stages, storylines for many teams in the spotlight have evolved from the typical ‘who to watch’ to ‘who’s gone down now?’ Chris ‘Beanie’ Wells, starting running back for the Ohio State University Buckeyes, continues to recuperate from a right toe injury suffered almost two weeks ago. National Football League (NFL) running back LaDainian Tomlinson, star of the San Diego Chargers, also limped from his team’s opening game with a foot injury recently – which he quickly brushed off as ‘turf toe.’ But how many athletes in fall sports, like football, take these types of injuries too lightly?

According to the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA), both professional and amateur athletes are at an extremely high risk for injuring their lower limbs during play. Whether performing hairpin turns on artificial turf or taking part in a powerful, high-speed collision with other players, foot and ankle injury risks for athletes run rampant – and participating in a favorite sport should always involve playing it safe.

“Stress fractures of the foot, ankle sprains and ligament injuries are all, unfortunately, quite common in popular fall sports such as football,” said Dr. David Davidson, APMA member and podiatric medical consultant for the Buffalo Bills of the NFL. “From maintaining proper conditioning to wearing sport-specific footwear, athletes can function at peak performance much more often when constantly maintaining high levels of footcare safety.”

The following are some of the most common acute injuries in fall sports, as well as treatments and preventative tips recommended by the APMA:


Sprains – Hard sprinting often leads to stretched or torn ligaments, also known as sprains. Severe sprains may also cause ankle swelling, much like a fracture.
Treatment – Sprains that don’t show improvement in three days should be seen by a podiatric physician immediately. Possible casting, immobilization and a rehabilitation regimen may all be prescribed.

Tips to Avoid Them – Take part in proper warm-up exercises before and after home workouts, practice and games. Spend five to 10 minutes stretching, holding and relaxing muscles.

Fractures – Fractures occur when a bone has been broken.
Treatment – Casting, and sometimes even surgery performed by a podiatric surgeon, is required to properly immobilize fractures and set breaks. Ten to 12 weeks are usually required for rehabilitation.

Tips to Avoid Them – Look for sport-specific footwear that contains extra padding in cleated shoes, which helps to prevent stress fractures – incomplete fractures in bones are typically caused by overuse.

Turf Toe – Named for the playing field on which it is common, turf toe is a painful hyperextension of the big toe joint. While competing on artificial turf is the leading cause of this condition, it can also occur on natural surfaces such as grass.
Treatment – Turf toe treatment usually includes the ‘RICE’ regimen, which stands for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation.

Tips to Avoid It – Wearing a stiffer shoe can prevent aggravating this injury further. Customized foot orthotics may also be worn during play to protect against turf toe.

Founded in 1912, the American Podiatric Medical Association is the nation’s leading professional society for foot and ankle specialists. The association has component societies in 53 locations in the U.S. and its territories and a membership of close to 11,500 doctors of podiatric medicine.
