The chemicals the team applies to remove moss also take their toll on the surface. “We’re trying various alternatives, including a hard surface cleaner which is suitable for tarmac, concrete, asphalt, block paving and synthetics.”
The former two‐tone blue courts have
been repainted two‐tone green; “more appropriate for tennis we thought. Jet spraying may be an option, although its time consuming but seems to be the only way to ensure complete removal,” adds Colin. After recent heavy snowfall had sparked a flat‐out response to clear access roads, paths and car parks, Colin is back to reflect on the team’s and his own role at Ampleforth. “Our key task is to make the most of the skills and the machinery we have to prepare the grounds to the best of our ability to

make a difference for the students and the school.”
“Of course, I’d liked to have worked at a Premier League ground, or spend time at a county cricket ground like many in my profession, but Ampleforth is my life and I’m having the time of my life serving the College. With twenty years’ service in agriculture to impart, I’m only too delighted to be able to deliver the benefits of that experience.”
