A filled synthetic sports playing surface is provided comprising, generally, a synthetic grass having fibers secured to a backing fabric. The backing fabric may have single, composite or multiple layers. The fibers can be formed from polyolefins, their co-polymers, or polyamides, and may be monofilament or slit film type yarns. The top dressing comprises natural soil or a synthetic soil or may be a mix of natural soil or synthetic soil with conventional infill material, such as resilient particles, mineral particles coated with a resilient layer or other types of infill materials. Alternatively, the top dressing may include an absorbent material treated with a coloring agent. The filled fabric generally described above may be installed over a drainage system and can have an irrigation system, particularly for an indoor field, in order to simulate wet weather conditions, provide for more realistic game play and manage other aspects of the field.
