It's a hot one on site today at Wythenshawe AFC βοΈπ‘
The team are hard at work carrying out renovation work to the pitch following the extremely hot bank holiday weekend.
Today's work's include installing gravel and sand slits to both goal mouth areas and the centre circle, adjacent to the existing drain lines at 1m centres, 300mm deep and 50mm wide, ahead of sand spreading operations.
As part of the renovation works, the goal mouths will also be rebuilt using 3 tonnes of rootzone per mouth to form a crowned surface, helping improve playability and drainage in these high wear areas.
The team will also be carrying out vertidraining, overseeding, alongside spreading fertiliser to encourage healthy recovery and growth π±
These work's will help improve surface drainage and overall pitch performance ahead of the new season.
Well done to the team out there working through the heat today π πͺ
