This workshop will focus on the subject of spring preparation/summer maintenance

Broadly, this workshop will cover the following:

  • How to maintain your pitch during the playing season, including mowing, use of fertiliser and watering.
  • What equipment and supplies you will need for the different activities.
  • What you need to do to get best results from all the various activities involved.
  • There will also be an opportunity to discuss specific queries and questions about groundsmanship.
  • The Course will be based around current ECB Guidelines and run by a former ECB pitch advisor.

At £50 per head for this workshop, and given the feedback received last year, we are very confident that this represents excellent value for money.
