Sutton Coldfield Juniors FC has become the latest club to embrace the technical superiority of the Turfdry Drainage System using Hydraway Sportsdrain as the long-term solution to pitch waterlogging. Coming as part of a period of consistent investment, which included the construction of brand-new pavilion facilities, the new drainage system  - primarily composed of Hydraway Sportsdrain installed at 3m spacings – also included the installation of a number of additional arterial drains to facilitate more cost-effective drainage improvements to the rest of the site, which is located to the rear of Bishop Walsh School.

Both the school staff and representatives of the club have been welcome hosts (with the Turfdry team even able to take the new pavilion for its maiden voyage!), and we look forward to catching up with them later in the year to see the transformative impact of the new drainage.
