For more than three decades, Estates Operations Manager Charlie Yeomans has worked behind the scenes to keep one of the UK’s busiest multi-sport campuses performing at the highest level. With year-round fixtures, external events and unpredictable weather placing constant pressure on the university’s natural turf surfaces, reliable equipment has become essential to maintaining standards.

Robert Jack, Area Sales Manager at Dennis Mowers, discusses the rise of pedestrian battery-powered mowers for grounds maintenance, and compares them against their traditional, petrol-powered counterparts.

Preparing high-quality cricket pitches and squares requires precision, consistency, and versatility. From early season preparation through to post-match recovery and end-of-season renovation, grounds professionals need machinery they can rely on every day.

Behind every top-quality football match lies a well-maintained pitch. Whether it's a professional stadium or a local training ground, the condition of the playing surface can directly impact player safety, performance and the longevity of the pitch itself.

One tool that plays a key role in maintaining these surfaces-but often goes unnoticed-is the SISIS Drag Brush. Designed for heavy-duty use on both artificial (synthetic) and natural grass football pitches, the drag brush is a simple yet powerful solution for keeping pitches in peak condition.

Maintaining pristine turf is no easy task, whether you manage a golf green, a cricket pitch, or a local authority lawn. That’s where the Verticut TT comes in. Designed for groundskeepers, clubs and turf professionals, this petrol-powered verticutter combines reliability, precision and comfort to deliver exceptional results every time.
