Houston, TX (January 8, 2024) –
Hellas, the leading sports contractor in North America, is proud to announce that the College Football Playoff Championship Game will be played on its Matrix Helix® Turf at NRG Stadium, home of the Houston Texans. This championship game marks the culmination of undefeated seasons for the University of Michigan and the University of Washington.
NRG Stadium has contracted exclusively with Hellas for the last six years to provide Matrix Helix turf for the stadium’s many high-profile games and events, including the Houston Texans, UIL playoff games, the Tax Act Texas Bowl, and the College Football Playoff Championship Game.
Matrix Helix is the synthetic turf system of choice for 13 NFL teams and a growing number of Division I FBS programs including, Clemson, Georgia, Tulane, Kentucky, Baylor, Iowa State, UNLV, UTSA, Texas Tech, and more.
“College and professional teams across North America select our turf for its superior playability,” said Reed J. Seaton, President and CEO of Hellas. “Matrix Helix turf is the perfect surface for the College Football Playoff Championship Game, and NRG Stadium is an excellent host stadium for this elite event.”
Matrix Helix turf is the ideal turf system for elite athletes and sporting venues. Made with patented monofilament fibers with Shape Memory Technology, the curled Matrix Helix fibers spring back into place after impact to provide secure footing and cleat release to athletes while holding infill in place. This results in a consistent playing surface for elite performance, even with high traffic and usage.
The College Football Playoff Championship Game between the Number 1 ranked Michigan Wolverines and the Number 2 ranked Washington Huskies is scheduled for kickoff at 6:30 p.m. central time.
