Good Luck!

Sounds great! Really looking forward to checking out the new site!
Best of luck to Combat UK


;) Oh and Pete! 'Mr Combat UK' is a decent guy, used to be my old boss, and I'm sure he's got a ballers best interest at heart!

Hi guys !

sorry for dropping off the face of the earth for a while .... we have been real busy building the site trying to find the best materials to use. with the weather situation the past few weeks it has set us back a bit as the astroturf became near impossible to move with just man power from the weight of the rain and sand in it :( and with all the wet clay the digger would sink so had to wait for that to try out.

have no fully dug up the area and are now filling it with the hardcore so we have no drainage problems. Monday we should be moving the containers viewing area back into the trees.

We have also found a whole new load of astroturf to use which is really good quality ( from a golf club).

all that is left to do is finish filling the hardcore out (about a quarter of the field left), level it all off properly and then re lay the new astroturf and then it should be done.

Next week we should be purchasing the millennium series netting once our contact gets back to us and the poles.

i cant really say an exact date yet guys for completion as alot of this is dependent on how quickly our suppliers get back to us. but we are working on it day and night everyday to get it finished as quickly as possible, we are just as excited to see it all up as you guys :) !

and thanks for the support guys and gals !

All the best

is that open day you mentioned still going on?
Yes we will be having an open day, which will be posted up on here the date as soon as we have everything tried and tested.

The staging area has been built and the last bits of astro turf are going down this week which has been the longest process so once that is done we should be well on our way to it being completed!

All the Best,

Chris

One of my team mates was down there today and said the field was brilliant staging area great. they where still taking the cellophane off the bunkers when he got there.it sounds like a lot of money as been spent here. He had a great day. Sorry I missed it I had to work but next time I won't. Thanks for the heads up mark.
