Mission Statement:

The mission of the Sports Turf Managers Association (STMA) is to combine the science of growing turf grass with the art of maintaining sport fields to produce safe, playable, and aesthetically pleasing sport fields. In addition, the STMA is to be the recognized leader in the sports turf industry, enhance member competence and increase acknowledgement of their professionalism. As the organization representing the individuals who care for and maintain sport fields at all levels of competition, the STMA is an important and valuable contributor to the sports world. Promoting the work of the STMA gives external audiences a greater understanding of the efforts required to properly manage turf playing surfaces. It also helps underscore the value of turf maintenance programs to protect competitors from injury and how these programs encourage fair and equal playing conditions. Promoting the STMA benefits its membership by raising awareness of the industry, improving the professional reputations of members, positively influencing employers and reinforcing the organization’s leadership role.
