SISIS Quadraplay helps new groundsman
awrence Brown
L may have only just embarked on a career in groundsmanship ( 2 months in fact ) but he ’ s already chosen the perfect partner to help him at Ilford Rugby Club in the form of a SISIS Quadraplay .
Ilford Wanderers Rugby Football Club has been established since 1896 . The club has a sense of belonging and community , with families getting together to support players of all different ages . “ We play together , we win together ; we lose together , we stay together ,” is the club ’ s motto .
It is easy to see why Lawrence wanted to work for a club such as Ilford Wanderers .
“ This is my first job in groundsmanship and I love it ,” he said . “ The club is fantastic ; I always liked the idea of working outside – especially on pitches ; I like using machinery and I really enjoy driving tractors . The groundsman job came up , I really wanted it and fortunately I got it .”
Lawrence was straight to work and is slowly but surely developing the skills required to maintain sports pitches . He admits that it will take time but claims that equipment such as the SISIS Quadraplay is certainly making his first taste of groundsmanship enjoyable .
