🌟🏆 Wimbledon is not just about spectacular tennis matches; it's also a beacon of creativity and innovation! They're thinking outside the box by giving used tennis balls a new purpose—adorable little homes for mice! 🐭🎾 As harvest time approaches, these cosy shelters provide mice with a safe haven, keeping them away from predators and the dangers of farming equipment. Plus, their bright colours make them easy to spot and remove if they become a hazard. This initiative is a wonderful reminder that a bit of creativity can go a long way in helping the environment. Let's take inspiration from Wimbledon and find innovative ways to repurpose and recycle in our own lives! 🌍💡 How do you repurpose items in creative ways?

🪡 ⚽ 🏟️ #LimontaSportReference | In a few hours Como 1907 will play against Bologna FC 1909 at the Sinigalia Stadium in #Como. Important investments for #Como1907, which only in 2018 was in the lowest category of the Italian championship and now plays among the strongest in the league. First, the remaking of the playing rectangle of the Stadium's field with #Mixto #hybrid #grass, which after 3 years is in perfect playing condition. Now, for the first team's training pitch, the choice has fallen on #VerdeMix technology, also hybrid grass but ‘stitched’. The artificial grass is in fact #stitched on site directly into the natural grass. We are proud that Como 1907 chosed Mixto and VerdeMix, two technologies Made in Italy. 👉 Discover more in Limonta Sport's hybrid grass: https://lnkd.in/djGFP97e #LimontaSport #hybridgrass #hybridtechnology Karim Ajam Rappo Srl

The end of artificial turf?  In recent months, there have been a series of communications from various media outlets discussing the European Union's prohibition on artificial turf sports fields, such as those used at Padel Hispania. However, nothing could be further from the truth; it is a prohibition specifically targeting the rubber infill of the turf. Artificial turf comprises several components, including the fiber base, with its infill consisting initially of a layer of sand and a second layer containing various elements, including rubber sourced from unused tires. The EU bans rubber due to its environmental impact, meaning the prohibition targets one of the infill components of artificial turf. The microplastics being banned are organic, insoluble synthetic polymer particles measuring less than 5 centimeters, which are released into the environment uncontrollably and have a significant impact. This implies that within an 8-year timeframe, all artificial turf sports fields cannot incorporate rubber microparticles and must be replaced with a different substrate that is not harmful to the environment 🔄 Therefore, there is no need for panic among sports clubs or local administrations; alternatives to this type of infill must be sought, while artificial turf will continue to maintain its current components. At Padel Hispania, we work to offer the best and most updated materials to ensure your padel court is ready and set to provide the best experience. Feel free to ask us about how we manufacture our courts and actively engage in using environmentally friendly materials 🌍 https://lnkd.in/ej98QKcN #PadelHispania #SportsFields #Microplastics #SustainableMaterials #PadelCourts #EnvironmentallyFriendly

Stacking up sustainability in sports. These blocks were created by recycling the mesh fencing from our GEO-certified Ladies Professional Golf Association event last year. 🏌️ Our Pack Studios scientists developed the innovative molds after a lot of research…and a few rounds of stacking blocks. A yearly challenge, it’s always fun to transform items from the event into new applications, promoting a circular economy. #SustainabilityInSport #Golf #Recycling #CircularEconomy

In case you missed it: 📣 SPEAKER SPOTLIGHT Chief Executive of The Jockey Club, Nevin Truesdale will be a keynote speaker at the 2024 Racing Foundation Conference. Ahead of the 2024 running of the Randox Grand National, the Jockey Club announced substantial updates to the historic race, including reducing the maximum number of runners and moving the first fence 60 yards closer to the start to slow the early stages of the race. The changes, which were seen as an influential example of protecting the sport's social licence by some stakeholders, were met with mixed reaction by others. In his keynote talk, Truesdale will outline the factors contributing to the decision, implementation, managing stakeholder buy-in and how he foresees the rule changes contributing to the Grand National's licence to operate long-term. 🏇 Racing Foundation Conference 👥 Theme: The Social Licence Challenge 📆 Wednesday 2nd October 2024 📍 Ascot Racecourse    The key question being explored throughout this year’s conference is: how can horseracing navigate social licence amidst changing societal expectations? 🎟 Click here for the full agenda and to secure your tickets:
