Pitch Renovations

Just to let you Guy's know that work on the Pitch has started today and will take 2-3 days to complete with some of the work being done this week and the rest next, the work will include verti-draining, Disc seeding and top dressing to level. This season there has been an improvement in the condition of the pitch due to more emphases on slitting and only heavy rolling when needed, this has resulted in no games being called of due to rain/flooding and more grass coverage despite having more games played on it. This will continue next season and the club hopes the pitch will be even better, we will update the progress and pictures of the pitch as we did last year. UTR's

Great stuff!

If you need any help i'll pop down after work, although at 3:30 it's probably all done?

Nice to see the renovation works get off to a fly start, so far it's been vertidrained, seeded 4 ways, fertilised and we have top dressed all major dips in the pitch, this all should mean the surface this year will be the best yet, :-)

Pictures?

Sounds great...the pitch does not help us at all.

I remember watching Luke Benbow running with the ball down at Hitchin and thinking he could never do that at The Valley...

would appreciate some pictures of the pitch renovations (if possible)

I don't no how to get any pics from my phone on to here, sorry, can't really notice much, apart from the 15 dips we filled in on the pitch, back down there tomorrow to do work on the centre channel

Jeff has the photos of the tractors vertidraining and seeding
