clubs in the local area, and also through my role in BIGGA, I’ve got friends that are prepared to help out.” “That helped us recently with the
preparations for our Trilby Tour event, when course managers and greenkeepers from other clubs spent time with us preparing the course in the lead up to the event. It’s things like this that make our industry truly unique and I’m very much looking forward to having the opportunity to repay the favours in the future.”
“The club has recently changed their
bunker sand due to the increase in haulage costs from the south coast, our old sand was very high quality, but it was proving just too expensive due to the distance it had to travel, so we have recently selected a bunker sand from a much closer quarry in the Midlands. Our topdressing sand still come from a little further afield; it’s a Rufford CH28 from a quarry in Cheshire.” “But it isn’t just about all that. I’m involved in the meeting, because the rest of the
management care what we think, and find it useful.”
“We met that day, at the bar in the clubhouse, and I remember saying to the guys that we’ve never shied away from a challenge in the past, so there’s no reason that we should start doing so now. I said: ‘Let’s do it’, and they listened.”
