Reading City’s grounds team is up for a Berkshire Football Award in the category of Grounds Team of the Season sponsored by Calibra Tree Surgeons.
The Combined Counties League side share their ground with Woodley United as well as women’s side Tilehurst Panthers. The ground also hosts numerous Thames Valley Premier League matches and Sunday League Cup Finals.
One nomination for the award said: “I don’t know who has been doing the Reading City pitch the last few years but the transformation is incredible. Despite regular floods, the pitch has held up incredibly the last few seasons and is a credit to whoever sorts it out. It used to be an awful dusty bumpy mess this time of year, the transformation is well worth a shout.”
