Credit where it’s due for Pitchcare Cricket Course
Lantra Accreditation for Pitchcare’s 2 day Cricket Pitch Maintenance Course
Lantra, the Sector Skills Council for the Sports Turf Industry, has formally accredited Pitchcare’s new 2 day Cricket Pitch Maintenance course.
This new course builds on the success of the current basic 1 day course, but incorporates more practical elements, as suggested by previous attendees.
The course is designed for volunteer and part-time groundsmen, and still includes all the theory behind the practice, but now includes more practical work and demonstrations out on the square and outfield.
Commenting on the accreditation, Training & Development Manager, Chris Johnson explained, “Our 1 day courses are very comprehensive and ideal for volunteers and part-time groundsmen, however, the feedback from candidates on the course was that they wanted more ‘out on the field’ training. We have taken this on board, and can now provide people with the choice of a 1 day or 2 day course, both of which carry the Lantra accreditation.”

“We feel it is important to have the accreditation as provided by Lantra, because it gives candidates, their employers and insurers a quality reference; the course materials, content and instructors are all independently assessed and approved.”
