Nominations taken from clubs at step 7 or below.

Surrey FA are delighted to once again support the honour for ‘Groundsman of the Year’ at our annual Grassroots Awards.

This award is open to any groundsmen that take care of pitches for clubs at step 7 or below in the football pyramid – separate awards are available for groundsmen higher in the football pyramid, the nominations for these awards will come from leagues rather than clubs.

The awards were originally set up to celebrate the unsung heroes of grassroots football. Battling through extreme weather conditions all-year round, groundsmen up and down the country ensure that pitches are in the best possible condition to facilitate matches for around 90,000 teams.

Does your clubs groundsman deserve special recognition?

If the answer is yes (and your club is at step 7 or below) please return completed forms by email to: Mike.Gilham@SurreyFA.com or via post to Surrey FA, Meadowbank Football Ground, Mill Lane, Dorking, RH4 1DX.

Closing date for nominations is Friday 8th February 2019.
