Abstract/Contents:Discusses groundskeeping practices in the Netherlands, stating that "a major concern in the Netherlands is the government's mandate that playing surfaces be constructed of a very coarse, red brick that, when playable, creates an exceedingly rough, uneven sliding and fielding surface." Mentions that "because baseball and soccer have been eliminated from the Olympics, European interplay is the presiding championship cup. The Netherlands is consistently one of the top two teams, so maintenance and care of their playing surfaces is of utmost importance."
