Pitch renovation #1 was completed and we demonstrated all the equipment to local grounds managers. The field was seeded and then dragged with a drag mat to complete the renovation. The representative for NH-Koneet Oy, a machinery dealer we partnered with, informed us that the Finnish National Football Team would be training on the pitch once it was grown in.

Pitch renovation #2 took place at a popular community field called Pirkkola Pitch. This pitch was uneven and had some issues with compaction, but was properly constructed when you dug into the soil. We set to work and used the Koro, Speedresser, Recycling Dresser, Speedharrow, and seeders to renovate the pitch as explained in my last post.

One side of the pitch had some bad compaction; the Imants Shockwave was used with tremendous results. Immediately after we used it, the compaction was gone.

Another demonstration day was held, this time in the rain. Then, the truck was loaded and ready to be taken to Oslo, Norway. I will be going back to Manchester, however, for a busy week and a trip to London.Posted 22 May 2015
