Groundsman

2019 Groundsman of the Year Awards

Nominations are invited from Step 7 and below to enter once again into the FA Groundsman of the Year competition.

Nominees are visited by county officials to judge their site and ranked locally.

The first ranked club will then go forward to The FA’s national judging stage and undergo independent adjudication. The groundsmen at this level of football are nearly all volunteers who give up hours of their time to provide the best pitches possible using very few resources.

This competition is a great way for these volunteers to be recognised on a local and national level, whilst also having the opportunity to meet and talk with the professional groundsmen who conduct the judging.
