Default Sharp sand ?

sharp sand is no longer used on football pitches as it creates poor root
growth

When the book calls for Horticultural grit or sharp sand. Will building
grit and sharp sand do instead ..I know it seen
ms to be frowned on but ordinary sharp sand is used on football
pitches...Wondered if the horticultural label was just to relieve us of
more money ?
