club facilities preparation


Preparation is the key to enable the game to be played throughout the season, weather permitting.

Before the first whistle of the new season is blown, you should ensure that you give the pitches and facilities the best possible kick start. It can make all the difference to the season ahead.

pre-season preparation


June – July

The team input copious amounts of voluntary time and energy into making the pitches and facilities the best that they can be, and it’s important that this preparation is undertaken prior to the season starting.

Not only does this preparation ensure that quality is reached at the start of the season, but it also helps with making the workload during the season much less.

The Grounds Maintenance Association (GMA) toolkit will provide you with easy to follow text, images and video resources to guide you through the operations undertaken on the pitch, and the equipment and materials required.
