Encapsulated turf maintenance system

An underground fluid exchange system for control of delivery to and removal from the turf area of a playing field comprising:

• a) a playing field having a selected soil profile comprising a combination turf and topsoil turf segment, a porous soil segment and an impervious soil segment;
• b) fluid exchange apparatus positioned underground in the porous soil segment for controlling the transfer of fluids between the solid profile and a reservoir comprising soil-embedded porous conduit comprising a continuous filter wall for selectively receiving filtered drainage fluid and filtered subsurface irrigation;
• c) reservoir means for receiving and storing all fluids introduced to the soil profile;
• e) manifold means for connecting the porous conduit to said reservoir
• f) pump means for transferring fluid form reservoir means to soil profile of turf
• b) an encapsulation means for enclosing the soil profile positioned underground beneath the playing field;
• g) control means with sensing means for controlling transfer of chemical laden water between a turf and soil profile and a containment reservoir wherein said fluid exchange system restricts any "leaching" or movement of chemicals into ground waters and directs all irrigation waters, fertilizer and pesticides into a holding tank for recycling.
