Mark will spray these areas with an algaecide as and when required.
The maintenance budget, for these four artificial pitches alone, exceeds £25,000 per year. However, the benefits are tremendous in that they provide a wide range of playing surfaces for the students and athletes. All artificial surfaces require
regular maintenance, despite claims to the contrary when they first became available. Keeping the surfaces clean and free of debris is the first priority, followed by regular brushing, particularly on rubber crumb infill systems, to keep the pile upright and to agitate infill materials. Without regular maintenance the carpets can quickly deteriorate and reduce the lifespan of the surface. It is the diversity and range of sporting facilities that ensure Mark and his staff are never bored. The challenges are always there with constant deadlines to meet and the expectations of the end users of such a high level institution.
Even during the winter there’s often no respite for the staff who are likely to be busy working on new developments or substantial winter sport maintenance programmes.
As a committed natural turf man, Mark takes great pride in producing quality grass surfaces. With an increasing number of professional clubs using the university’s facilities, it is essential to maintain the highest possible standards.
Mark enjoys his job and sees each year as a new challenge, and an opportunity to try out new ideas, test new products and machinery with the hope of making the job easier and more efficient. With the university a possible training camp for the 2012 London Olympics, life is only going to get busier.
