He has worked with the Sports Turf Research Institute on sports turf nutrition, and control of turf diseases and pests, and established two high quality lawns from scratch at Letchworth Croquet Club.
George Noble, Chairman of Surbiton Croquet Club for many years, converted Surbiton’s 7 lawns over the years from rough, sloping, former tennis courts to some of the best in the country.
