Why designate game only fields?

“Hi Paula, Thank you for getting back to me about the field at Pico Norte. I also wanted to say that what you are doing about the game fields only is a great idea. This will help them stay in top shape when it counts. I have been around other cities that do the same at their soccer complexes and the fields look great. Thanks again for all your hard work.”
