Blues announce new maintenance deal with SJK Sports Turf Maintenance Ltd

At Met Police our arrangements for the preparation and maintenance of our stadium pitch are about to change. After 100 years of being serviced by grounds staff employed by the Imber Court Sports Club the Sports Club has decided to terminate the arrangement with effect from the end of season 20/21.

As we are all aware the season is now terminated and following a comprehensive tendering process The Met is pleased to announce that SJK Sports Turf Maintenance Ltd will be commencing work on the pitch immediately to take advantage of the maximum time available for a Summer refurbishment and then regular maintenance across season 2021/22.

Chairman Des Flanders said “After 100 years of continuous and more than satisfactory service from our neighbours at Imber Court Sports Club this is something of a leap into the unknown for the Football Club. But we have every confidence in Scott Mayersbeth and his team to provide us with a first class playing surface which we can be proud of. SJK have a great track record and we are pleased to have secured their services. On behalf of the Football Club I would like to place on record our thanks to the grounds staff at Imber Court and in particular to Dave Mason and Paul Blackburn who have worked so hard over the past 20 years or so to deliver a great playing surface enjoyed by all who have paled at the Imber Court stadium”.
