Requirements are completed as necessary to meet scheduled games and practices year round. Daily field preparation varies depending on the number of
events assigned to a field per week. All City fields are mowed using hydraulic - driven reel mowers twice per week and edged as needed. Field painting is achieved using string aligned to bases, following regulation baseball/ softball specified guidelines. Calcined clay conditioner is utilized on City of Irvine maintained fields to ensure optimum moisture levels and field playing surfaces. The year round monitoring of infield water moisture levels is a crucial component for maintaining safe and highly playable fields. Multiple infield preps and watering may be necessary in a day to achieve highest standards. Time of year, length of day, amount of sunlight, temperature and level of play determine the amount of maintenance, man - power, materials and moisture that each field will receive daily.
