Stronger together – #GroundsWeek Virtual Round-Table
With the GMA’s #GroundsWeek initiative kicking off next week, we hosted a virtual round-table event with Jason Booth, Chief Operating Officer at the GMA. He gave us some insight on what to expect from the week that aims to celebrate and highlight the vital role of professional grounds staff, volunteers, and the turf sector play in making sport possible.
We were also joined by Wesley Matthews – Volunteer Groundsman at Cranfield United FC, James Wright – Grounds & Gardens Team Leader at the University of Leeds, Kevin Thompson – Volunteer Groundsman at Thatto Heath Crusaders and Jon Ramsay – Head of Grounds at Summer Fields School. The panel discussed exactly why this initiative is important to all sectors and roles within the Turfcare industry.
