Celebrating The GMA's #GroundsWeek
This week, 28th February – 6th March, is #GroundsWeek
Grounds Week is a Grounds Management Association (GMA) initiative to shine a light on the impact of grounds care on sport and green spaces, including Cricket.
You can read more about #GroundsWeek here; #GroundsWeek 2022 | Grounds Management Association (thegma.org.uk)
During the course of the week, the GMA are sharing new stories, research and other content relating to grounds care. It will also be an opportunity for you to learn more about the services provided by the GMA.
What can you do at your club?
Firstly, if you want to learn more about Grounds Week and the GMA in general, why not sign up to here more from the GMA on a regular basis
Also, if you don’t already do so, why not follow the GMA through their social media channels where you will receive regular contents and updates relevant to your roles within recreational cricket:

Finally, why not engage with Grounds Week at your club …
Ideas include:
- A photo of you and / or your colleagues at work
- A photo of your ground (either current or past work you’re really proud of)
- A short video of you or your grounds colleagues talking about how you got into the industry / help out in your spare time
- Using line markers to write ‘#GroundsWeek’ on the pitch or training facilities for photos
- Getting a player or member of coaching staff to try their hand at preparing the pitch for a short video
