Yes, Independence is a turf field. This from my son who has played on both: plays very fast, ball tends to skip ahead differently than on a grass field. Players tend to trip on it as their feet get caught in the little rubber pieces. Also, when you slide on it, it will cause pretty bad brush burns. Last year my son's team played on it for the first time and it definitely caused some problems with their game because of the way the ball played on the surface.
