The association provides a link between the volunteer ground staff in village cricket, through club cricket right up to the first class arena. It allows like-minded, dedicated individuals access to a wealth of knowledge from their peers, who are working in similar conditions and, more often than not, encountering similar issues.
Benefits of association membership include an invitation to a range of meeting dates, where members enjoy sharing information and ideas, as well as listening to a series of presentations by experts who share their knowledge through talks and demonstrations.
The association is currently able to:
• Organise educational courses in cricket grounds maintenance and related courses
• Offer local support, help and advice
• Offer access to specialist machinery
• Provide access to savings on soils and other materials/supplies
• Promote cricket grounds maintenance and good practice
• Provide all its services in a way that is fair to all members
• Represent the best interests of cricket ground staff in Nottinghamshire at local and national
level
Membership also includes discount fees on GMA/ECB courses as well as locally run training courses. These give ground staff, new and old, the opportunity to increase their knowledge, from the basics to the more advanced aspects of turf management.
