When should sports pitch renovations take place?
The majority of sports field renovations take place at the end of the playing season. In addition, light pre-season renovations will promote a denser healthier grass sward to improve playability throughout the season. Renovations relieve soil compaction, increase aeration and improve drainage within the soil profile. In turn this will encourage better root growth and improve the grass health.
This will also be time of year to consider scarifying or verti-cutting sports field surfaces to remove the unwanted dead and decaying materials, improving air circulation through the grass sward. This will provide a cleaner surface ready for the next phase.
Once the initial renovations have been completed, overseeding is the next important step in establishing a healthy dense sward, thus reducing weed and moss invasion. This can be achieved by discussing the appropriate seed mixtures and grass varieties for your playing surface requirements. After overseeding the pitches, it is key to top-dress to restore and improve the playing surface levels.
Sports field renovations can vary depending on when the seasons ends and the type of sports surface. Renovation stages can start from March/April to later in the year between September/October time. Works should ideally be carried out between 4-6 weeks before the start of the new season to allow the newly seeded grass to establish.
