In our first WEB ONLY story today, Mat Edwards, head greenkeeper at Looe Golf Club in Cornwall, has transformed the course into one of the most respected in the county.

As part of its centenary celebrations, Stiga (UK) Limited who own ATCO, have launched a search for the oldest working machine still in use in the UK.

Two organisations say they are working closely together to support grassroots football clubs across the county with the improvement of their natural turf pitches. 

Partnership will see the company service grassroots football teams in the Black Country, Birmingham, Coventry, Solihull and Warwickshire.

Manufacturer says their three-hole golf course at the Turf Care Centre of Excellence in Ipswich, has become more important than ever to product development and testing.
