New York City Football Club is a proud partner of The LandTek Group, where sports facility construction and pitch maintenance are the top priorities when it comes to making sure the Boys in Blue are ready on matchdays.
We spoke to Chris Fox, LandTek’s Head Groundskeeper, and the main man in charge of keeping the grass at the City Football Academy and Yankee Stadium in top form throughout the season.
I along with my assistant, Joe Fitzgerald, perform the tests on match day. We arrive the morning of the match and review with the Yankees ground staff how the temporary sod installation progressed and how the traditional sod areas have been performing.
