refurbishment. Sussex support staff were much in evidence forty-eight hours ahead of the game. It was big for the county club, and very big for the Saffrons. Weather permitting, the club was expecting and ready for a 4,000 crowd that coming Sunday. Forty volunteers were lined up to help on the day of the game, too.
There was a nervous all round excitement about the new square and its match baptism.
Contractors Kestrel had been appointed
by Eastbourne CC to do the resurfacing of the 17-pitch square on the recommendation of Sussex CCC. Work was started in the first week in September last year and took under six days to complete.
There is apparently a six-foot fall from one side of the ground to the other. The main object of the relaying was to offset this across the ‘business area’. The brief had been to Koro and clean up pitches 1-6, and for the remainder, to Koro them off and power harrow to a depth of
50mm, then apply 55 tonnes of Binders Super Surrey Loam and laser level. The fresh surface was then sowed with Barenbrug Bar Extreme.
The square had its first cut just seventeen days after sowing. Germination sheets had been used on the top six pitches, but conditions at the time were dry and favourable. Since then, there has been no need for any over seeding at all. It was pitch number five that was being prepared for the Sussex/Gloucestershire
