CT is firmly in cool-season grass zone. Bluegrass, ryes, fine leaf and tall fescues are the main choices. Some folks have zoysia which does well in the spring and summer but goes dormant for the other half-ish year.

We have been doing some testing with a few New England universities with some new cool-tolerant Bermudagrass varieties in sportsfield application with some promising results.
