Matchsaver Ltd, suppliers of the unique Matchsaver Automated Pitch Protection System, has embarked on a European wide marketing initiative to support clubs and stadia in their continuing struggles against the weather.

After talking to many clubs and stadia across Europe Matchsaver’s brand new website now incorporates downloadable product information in 10 languages. Matchsaver also initiated a re-branding exercise with the new Matchsaver logo now incorporating a sharper green and gold motif.

Matchsaver know that Groundsmen keep a constant eye on the weather. In 2009 July was the wettest month in parts of England. In 2010 it was August and last year it was December. Matchsaver has collected valuable historical weather data illustrating how Automated Pitch Protection can control precipitation on the pitch. This information is proving invaluable to groundsmen as they look to invest in pitch protection to help secure their clubs revenue streams into the future.

Using Matchsaver offers a consistent playing surface throughout the season. The system can be deployed in 15 minutes and controls the amount of moisture that comes into contact with the pitch. This helps to stop excess water washing away root growth and expensive fertilisers before they can do their job even on pitches with good drainage. In really bad weather Matchsaver is tough enough to allow snow to be removed from its’ surface by tractors with snow removal attachments so that staff can be freed to attend other important duties. Matchsaver can also be quickly inflated with warm air to prevent the pitch from freezing and when used in conjunction with under-soil heating the insulating effect of the Matchsaver cover can reduce heating bills and carbon emissions by up to 50%.

Tim McCullagh states, ‘Matchsaver is insurance against the weather. Our focus is about the people who contribute to delivering the best playing surfaces.  And together we can protect the pitches from unwanted, damaging and inclement weather.
