SURREY CRICKET GROUNDSMAN’S ASSOCIATION

The SCGA set up in 2003 has helped greatly to raise the profile of groundsman and groundsmanship within Surrey. Boasting over sixty members from clubs, schools and local authorities its overall aim is to work in partnership with appropriate individuals and agencies to develop both grounds and groundsmen in the county.

For just £10 a year you can join the SCGA and receive amongst other things;

  • Invites to meeting/presentations/demonstrations including an annual conference

  • Information on courses including possible subsidies.

  • Support from the Pitch Advisory Team.

  • Opportunities to see behind the scenes at major cricket venues.

  • Access to the ECB Trailer

  • Information on the new ECB Machinery Fund

With more money beginning to enter cricket for the use of upgrading facilities it’s important not to miss out on receiving this information.

 Junior cricket is beginning to take its toll on squares and outfields so whether you are a groundsman or a committee rep join now and be involved.
