This morning we started stage 1 of upgrading our playing surfaces to sand based pitches .

this is a long term project that will take a couple of years to complete , we have started upgrading the main pitch and palm pitch to start .

Both pitches had to be aerated first and then were top dressed with 100 Tonne of sand per pitch.

This project will help dry out our playing surfaces and help to keep them open all season .

Thanks to Martin Travers for all his help and advice in overseeing the pitch upgrades in the Club.

Also thank you to John From Finucane & Sons plant hire for arranging collection of all the machinery needed to complete phase one of the upgrade it is very much appreciated.
