| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the "inaugural New Zealand Sports Turf Conference and Trade Show [which] was held at Rotorua in early July." Explains that "even though this overall approach to turf industry education has occurred in the past under the direction of the New Zealand Sports Turf Institute, this was the first occasion that it had been controlled by the industry." Details the events of the conference and trade show, which were attended by sixteen Australians from various sectors of the industry. Discusses the guest speakers and details the presentations given at the conference and trade show. Explains that "the approach to training of turf practitioners appears to be heading in the right direction after the subject was discussed by Martyn Baker from NZ Sports Turf Inudstry Training Organisation." Presents four qualifications that were developed for sports turf managers. |
