Abstract
A field cover system to selectively cover, and uncover, a sports field or similar is described. The field cover system comprising a flexible resilient planar material to extend and cover the sports field, and to retract and uncover the sports field, a plurality of elongate support members, moveable to extend between a retracted position and an extended position, and one or more tensile members configured to, in use, support and/or attach to the cover and attach to the plurality of elongate support members. In the retracted position the plurality of elongate support members is located substantially below a surface level of the sports field, and in the extended position and with the tensile members attached to or supporting the cover, the elongate support members elevate the flexible resilient planar material above the sports field.
