I hear this regularly said that astro turf causes injuries, from all levels from my amateur football team to hearing professional football pundits mentioning it when a pitch is 3G or whatever. I have never heard a reason for why this might be and I know a lot of these sports myths get propogated, I am wondering if its true and if so, why?
