Good article and interview. We seem to be getting some info about reasons for some of the injuries now.

Positive and encouraging words from Launch.

The players have finally got what was promised to them in November 2014!

Looking forward to a ligament/knee /ankle injury free season!

It's interesting that he brings up the pitch surfaces.  I spent a bit of time chatting to the guy who designed them, a PhD level sports surface consultant, he was enjoying watching the players training and wanted to get their feedback.  Personally I was just amazed at the level of detail that goes into planning, what is in essence, some grass...

Do you think he'd come and take a look at my lawn??

Probably not advisable to have him look at your lawn. We’re talking about someone that went to Uni for seven-or-so years and came away with a PhD in grass. He’s more likely to just roll it up and smoke it!

Apparently he's happy to come and advise on your own lawn or golf course... 😲
