Watch this video to get an idea of what it takes to prepare a world class pitch for a match.

Tri-Turf, Inc a customer of CS Trading purchased a SISIS Litamina sweeper for his regular turf contract work and never anticipated that he would win a yearly contract to remove goose droppings from a school field in Mineola, NY. Obviously any mix of sport and young people involves player and surface contact - not pleasant if covered with goose waste, hence the school district calling in Tri-Turf, Inc.

Could you tell us when you joined the club and in what capacity - also when you became assistant course manager if you didn't join as in that capacity?
I joined the London Club in 2003 after applying for the First Assistants job. Immediately after I arrived the team was restructured and I was asked to take the Head Greenkeepers position on the International course. Within four months I moved to the Nicklaus designed Heritage course and adopted my current Head Greenkeeper / Assistant Courses Manager role. This is a great role that keeps me involved with all aspects of the business, from operations meetings with the senior management team to raking bunkers at the weekend with the casuals.

What time do you arrive at the club?
Anytime from 5.30 to 6.30 depending on the time of year. We have needed to start as early as 4.30 for some of our larger events.
