Austin, TX (January 11, 2024) –
The Dallas Cowboys and the Houston Texans each secured division titles in the final week of the regular NFL season and are preparing for the first round of the playoffs. Besides both franchises being in Texas, the Cowboys and Texans have another thing in common—they both play on Matrix Helix® Turf systems designed, manufactured, and installed by Hellas.
In the final game of the regular NFL season, the Dallas Cowboys clinched the NFC East division title. With their storied history and reputation as “America’s Team,” The Dallas Cowboys play on a Hellas Matrix Helix Turf system at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and practice on Matrix Helix at the Star in Frisco, Texas. Hellas has been the Official Turf Provider of the Dallas Cowboys since 2013.
“Over the last decade, Hellas has provided us with multiple turf fields that have helped transform AT&T Stadium into a world-class event center,” says AT&T Stadium General Manager Tod Martin. “From NFL and collegiate football games to international soccer matches, it is a luxury to own separate field surfaces to fit a wide variety of sporting events and execute them at the highest level.”
In Houston, the Texans are back in the playoffs for the first time since 2019, this time as the AFC South division title winners. The team plays at NRG Stadium on Hellas’ Matrix Helix Turf system, and practices on the same turf system at their practice facility. Matrix Helix Turf systems by Hellas have been the Preferred Turf of the Houston Texans for the past six years.
“We take immense pride in being integral to the success of two dynamic and competitive football teams,” says Hellas CEO Reed J. Seaton. “Leveraging our cutting-edge turf and seasoned experts, the Dallas Cowboys and the Houston Texans have earned well-deserved division titles. We eagerly anticipate cheering on both teams during their playoff run.”
In addition to providing turf for the Cowboys and the Texans, Hellas turf can also be found at the practice facilities and/or stadiums of 10 other NFL teams during the 2023 season. Half of all teams in the playoffs play or practice on a Hellas Matrix Helix Turf system.
