Abstract/Contents:"To try to cover sportsground management in a few notes is an extremely difficult task. Sportsgrounds cover a very wide spectrum which, for the student, involves many years of study. Throughout a lifetime one never ceases to learn. These notes therefore only skate around the fringes of the subject." Discusses the objective, suitability of the surface, surveying the ground, 'grass root' decisions, obtaining results, the soil and its importance, joint use, the management programme, competent head groundsman, and good construction. "Successful sportsground management can not be obtained from books, courses, lectures or study; there is an involvement of experience and the ability to make decisions - the correctness of which will determine to a considerable degree the effectiveness of the groundsman."
