Game 31 tonight!! After what was one the worst conditions i’ve faced on a matchday with 11mm rain falling during the 90min the pitch has responded like a champ, not perfect but with 1 game in next 10 days time for some recovery and rest. 💙 @CrowboroughAFC @crowsunofficial

game 4 ready ahead of tomorrow ladies pre season fixture, 10mm of rain this week had perked the pitch up hopfully further improvements in coming weeks 💪. @CrowboroughAFC

last few touches before today’s final pre season game, it’s a tough slog atm not where i want the pitch to be but 2 1/2 week after today till we host competitive fixture giving us time to improve pitch further @CrowboroughAFC

That’s the 1st one out the way, pitch not where i want it but is improving with the early morning watering sessions starting to show signs of paying off, wetting agent and seaweed application this week get water into roots and start building on recovery. @CrowboroughAFC

Pitch just starting to show signs of stress and drying out so needs must and a few days of 4am watering to get back ontop again 💪. @CrowboroughAFC

little LTC for the pitch, sprayed with wetting agent and root booster to help us to maintain moisture with the increased dry weather, watering will be increased just to stay ontop of the heat. 💙. @CrowboroughAFC
