Groundskeepers

Cambridgeshire Cricket Board is committed to improving standards and increasing knowledge in all areas of our game, so that all Groundskeepers across Cambridgeshire have opportunity to produce the best possible playing surfaces and outfields at their grounds.

The Cambridgeshire Groundskeepers Association (CGA) is led by County Pitch Advisor Wayne Hardy, with support and assistance from our Cricket Development Officer, Neil Liversedge.

We totally want to support clubs, and where required, schools and councils with any ground issue, queries and training opportunities.

As part of our ongoing commitment to help and support clubs improve and/or develop their fine turf facilities, the CGA will continue to deliver the Ground Support Programme each year which is delivered by Wayne and the GMA (Grounds Management Association).  There is access to the County Pitch Advisor`s support for any club experiencing difficulties with their playing area.

Providing and maintaining safe, high-quality playing surfaces is hugely important, be they fine turf, non-turf or indoor practice facilities.

The CGA also co-ordinates programmes aimed at saving clubs money and because of that we encourage all club to take part in the frequent CGA events!

Grounds Management Association (GMA)
