 | | | | | | | | | 25.06.2008 Kolosha A. deputy director of the Lobanovskiy stadium “Dymano”, Kyiv “…Ukrainian championship is held according to a system spring-autumn and all important games take place exactly in this period.
The main task for agronomists is to prolong the term of vegetation and to keep football pitch in compliance with demands.
Along with decreasing daylight hours the vegetation of grass is slowing down…
I came to a conclusion that to maintain the pitch in a good condition a complex of actions is needed:
-artificial heating;
-special liquids recommended by microbiologists;
- grass protection from cold
Different covers are used for protection, they have not only to protect the grass from cold, but also allow the pitch to transmit air, let sunlight and moisture (rain and snow) go through. For this we use covers of the “Domen-Agro”, which meet all these demands..." | | 25.06.2008 A.Semenuk, the director of the central stadium “Chernomorets”, Odessa “…We have already been using white “Domen-A” cover for our pitch for 4 seasons.
Last few years the weather in wintertime surprises even old residents, and generally in Odessa the weather is very unpredictable.
Therefore the question how to prepare and maintain football pitch for spring and autumn-winter games of the Ukrainian championship causes many difficulties.
During 4 years when “Chernomorets” has been using these protective covers there was not a case when we had unready pitch for winter-spring games. For the most part it happens due to the covers, produced by the “Domen-Agro”..." | | 02.06.2008 Kokush M.A. , green projects’ master of “Il’ichevets” stadium, Mariupol “…We have been using black cover “Domen” since 2003.
By the end of February on pitches without heating black cover allows to defreeze the pitch completely, to clear it from snow and to provide normal germination during overgrassing and resowing…
Early beginning of the Ukrainian championship makes us start to prepare our football pitches not later than a month before the first match. We also used protective cover “Domen-B” on our training bases.
We covered the pitch without heating in the beginning of February and on the 27th of February the team came for the first training...” | | 25.05.2008 Hennadiy Kalishchuk, the director of the RSC “Olympiyskiy” and Anatoliy Yavorskiy, the director of the “Domen - Agro” on the “Olympiyskiy” stadium in Donetsk while exploiting anti-rain cover 08.02.2007  "...Our stadium was the first to use anti-rain cover, so I know it very well .We elaborated this cover in cooperation with the “Domen – Agro”.
This spring we had two intensive moments - on the 14th of February we had a game with “Nancy” and on the 15th of March - a game with “Seville” .The cover proved itself very well with sleet and rain (it happens very often during this season), moreover we noticed another interesting effect – during just a few days the grass got bright green color (which is very important for TV) .
On a press-conference the coach of “Shakhtar” M. Luchesku said that the first time he hadn’t had any complaint about the pitch in spite of the game score…” | | 21.05.2008 The main agronomist of landscape services of the Sport works department CJS “FC Shakhtar” Alexander Ryabchenko and the director of the "Domen-Agro" Anatoliy Yavorskiy Comments on using of the Domen-A cover
“…We used the cover Domen-A with a density 70g/m2 during wintertime 2007/2008 for football pitch protection of STB “Kirsha” and CJS FC “Shakhtar”, which have artificial heating. Undoubted advantages of these covers include:
- good water-, light- and air- transmitting ability;
- possibility to assemble and dismantle them quickly;
- essential economy of electrical power (about 40%);
- low price..."
| | 15.05.2008 Yuriy Kostyuk, the manager of football pitch service FC “Karpaty” on the “Ukraina” stadium “…This is the third cover that we purchased from the “Domen-Agro”. This spring (2008) we had serious problems with preparing the pitch for games. The cover helped a lot in solving these problems. We managed to prepare the pitch under very difficult conditions with minimum costs... ” | | | 25.04.2008 Matt Frost, the pitch manager of the stadium “Luzhniki “, Champion league final Moscow 2008, «…I found the black cover we purchased from you excellent for protection from night frosts in the autumn and early spring. I also found the black cover assist in development and strengthening of root system. I would have liked to have purchased the white cover to help restore the pitch after winter and to assist in germination of new seed unfortunately due to financial constraints we were not able to purchase the white cover. I would certainly insist in future to have both white and black coverings to help maintain the pitch, they are very good products for football pitch maintenance...» | |
