As a result of the 2019 Tantum Fields rehabilitation project, RLL has issued new guidelines for maintaining the fields.  Please take the time to review this document thoroughly and view the video links for examples on how to perform several field maintenance tasks properly.  It is extremely important that everyone follows consistent field maintenance practices in order to keep the fields in the best shape possible for our players.
