ACGT Groundswork

Prep day at @AllanGlensRFC ahead of the last home double header for the home side followed by hosting the Women’s National Plate playoff match between Hillfoots & Irvine on Sunday #BusinessEnd

Busy day @AllanGlensRFC getting the pitches cleaned up after the weekends rugby games and ready for this weekend. @GlasgowHarpAFC1 at home and the under 17’s rugby also have a home match at the ground. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏉⚽️

After a busy week, working at various venues. It was nice to have a chill Friday walk with my wee pal Bella through the wooded walk in Larbet. #labrador #walkies #Bella

Another day, another ground, today at the home of @AllanGlensRFC to get ready for their 1st and 2nd’s games at home tomorrow. The 1’s play @garnockrugby while the 2nd’s play @whitecraigsrc good luck to all teams 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏉

Busy day today down @Greenockcricket. Definitely the most challenging square from what we had to work with to where we are now, by no means perfect but bit by bit, getting the ground ready for the season ahead. Outfield double cut and overseed the square 🏏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿#harwork #groundie

Busy day again at West of Scotland Cricket Club. In the sun outfield cut down to 20mm to help it dry out some more and square also cut into wickets. Today marked the return of Bella, she had a total blast playing with her mate Fergus. #bella #labrador #workdog 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏏🦮

Coming soon @woscc… 🏏

Hell of a running repair job to be done at @HillheadSports this morning following two games of weekend rugby in less than ideal conditions. This spot has already taken a battering but, luckily, some better weather this week & a gap until the next fixture to help dry out & heal!

We have been drawn at home to Huntly in Round 1 of the Scottish Cup with the tie scheduled to take place on Sunday 26 April. Full draw⤵️

Beautiful morning in Bishopbriggs spent divoting and line marking ahead of tomorrow’s @GlasgowHarpAFC1 match. Couple of areas of concern so, ultimately, the hard work may be in vein but we’ve given it a good go! Thanks to apprentice Charlie for giving us a hand!

A fresh Thursday morning for a fresh cut & lick of paint ahead of the Friday Night Lights at @HillheadSports as @HJRFC welcome @AllanGlensRFC in the #ACGTDerby! Good luck to all!

Another busy day at Hamilton Crescent today. Outfield cut down to 30mm and square given another trim. Ground is in fantastic condition for this time of year as we tick closer down to the season starting. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏏

Wet and windy one today at @AllanGlensRFC, but waterproofs on and fork out for a bit of divot repair as we switch from last weekend’s rugby to this weekend’s footie and a home game for @GlasgowHarpAFC1! 💨🏉⚽️

Last visit is @Stenhousemuirc1 to aerate the square after the winter. Another good recovery from the renovation at the end of last season. Many thanks again to @Iain_McD17 and @nickyrodgers1 for the work. Good luck for the season ahead 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏏

Once again, big thanks to @davidhinchliffe for getting in touch and allowing us to carry out the work!

Early start this morning, returning to Loretto School to check in on the cricket square recovery after our end of season renovations. Really pleased with how the grass has come back, and conditions are good to be able to do some aeration before we hit the spring.

Same work applied @HillheadSports on the square as prep begins for @hillheadcc. Square spiked this morning. 🏏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A day of spiking cricket squares today. Perfect weather conditions to punch some holes in the square at Hamilton Crescent home of West of Scotland CC. Even managed a trim first. Just because it’s right conditions at these grounds doesn’t mean it’s right for everyone, 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏏

Battling against the elements over the festive period, both freezing and wet, but some drier spells and milder temperatures have us in a good spot ahead of weekend matches for @AllanGlensRFC & @GlasgowHarpAFC1 in Bishopbriggs!

A winters day in Glasgow but that hasn’t stopped us preparing @HillheadSports for the game on Saturday, where @HJRFC 2’s play host to @AllanGlensRFC. The 1st XI are away from home to the same opponents. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏉
