According to Wordnet the definition of a turf war is “a bitter struggle for territory or power or control or rights”. For example: a turf war erupted between street gangs; the president’s resignation was the result of a turf war with the board of directors.[1] In larger companies Turf wars could break out due to improper management further up the corporate hierarchy. It can also be described as contention for any resource between two or more parties resulting in confrontation. Phrase may have originated as a reference to the game of American Football where two teams confront each other on a field of grass or Turf.
