NAYA RAIPUR
It's great for field owners, but what about the athletes? Do they
have any reservations about playing on a field marked with
multiple lines?
It has been our experience that the athletes are not that distracted
by it. They seem to be more focused on playing. There might be lines
for soccer, football, lacrosse -- but when you're actually on the field
and in a game, it's is like the other lines disappear.
What about referees? Are they confused by it?
Not really. It's seems to be the same for officials as it is for the
athletes -- they know where the lines are and where the players
should be.

in constantly in motion, even when we are resting. If we do not find
sufficient opportunities for motion in our everyday surrounding, then we
pursue it in games and sport.
