The materials is rubber granule, there is another layer of silica sand under the rubber granule.

Rubber granule is used in football fields and Rugby pitches to provide a softer surface. Silica Sand is used in short pile artificial turf systems such as Field Hockey and tennis court to provide a more responsive surface. The infill materials stabilise the artificial grass fibers in an upright position. Fibers must be upright in a football field to slow down the ball speed and resemble the performance characteristics of a natural grass field.
