Is your pitch ready for Summer?

After an extremely wet winter is your pitch in shape to take the summer use? Before you start to mark out cricket squares and athletics tracks you need to first check that your ground is prepared and can take the spring/summer usage.

Spring pitch makeovers can be an essential part of pitch maintenance. It matters as pitches during the winter season get compacted and become airless. They also lose fertility and grass cover is diminished often getting replaced by weeds and moss.

The solution involves deep-tine to restructure and aerate the soil, fertilising the soil to encourage root and shoot growth, overseeding to improve grass cover and finally slit, scarify, brush and light rolling to correct the minor deviations.

When should a Spring pitch makeover happen? As soon as the play finishes in April/early May because unless you are fortunate enough to have an irrigated pitch the soil can dry out and therefore germination of grass seed will be less effective.

Wessex Grounds Services is here to help and is also the RFU’s ground maintenance contractor for Dorset. If you would like further information regarding any of the above then please don’t hesitate to contact us – enquiries@wessexgroundsservices.co.uk

Once your ground is prepared then why not get Wessex Grounds service to come and mark out the summer sports? We now have a robotic liner that uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) to paint accurate precise lines. It works across various surfaces. Your initial line marking is the most important as from there forward to can always go over them with your machines afterwards if your budget is tight.

If you have 3/4G pitches then how do you maintain them? These types of pitches need regular brushing and decompacting. If regular maintenance is not carried out then the damage to the artificial fibres is likely. The infill will also be inconsistent across the pitch. This will result in poor performance, inconsistent bounce and unsafe levels of grip which may in turn result in a greater number of injuries.
