Our Football Pitch Required a Proper Clean

I love artifical pitches. For a start, they don't turn into mud pits like grass does in the winter or during a rainy day. They give a true bounce and generally we all get to have a decent game with less chance of injury than the slippy grass we used to play on. However, over time the pitch does collect all kinds of rubbish in its weave - sand and weeds particularly. But with artificial pitch cleaning, it's as good as new again. We make sure that the money we collect from our players goes to a cleaning firm to ensure we can maintain the quality of the surface. In fact, I'd say that by doing so, it's kept our number of players at a record rate - to the point that we've even started a second league and now play four days a week instead of two days.
