The Most Underrated Position in Footballl? 😳🏟️ #shorts

Groundskeepers have long been one of football’s most underrated positions… While it often takes years of practice to truly understand the craft, the science behind pitch designs (ie: science of grass) is fairly straightforward… Do you think the Premier League was right to halt Groundsman from mowing intricate designs? 🤔 #football #soccer #mowing #grass #futebol #futbol #lawncare #design #art #viral #usa #lawntok #premierleague #footballtiktok #soccershorts #footballshorts #viral #facts #shorts

Premier league really said "youre doin too much"

It’s not lighter on one side or darker, but the side that’s facing away from you reflects more sunlight towards you and the grass where the tips are facing you is darker. Go perpendicular to striped turf and watch the lines disappear. I used to be a greenskeeper.

did bro really secretly give us a lesson on grass

I used to work on these mowers on a gold course, same mowers. The totary mowers give better quality of cut, but they need daily maintenance to keep bedknife and reel contact and to keep from pulling grass. They have rollers also to help grass lay in one direction. Plus direction changes daily in which way you cut the grass to stripe better and keep from yellowing on one side. One of these reel pushmowers weighs about 300 lbs, they are heavy. Also they use rollers to stripe grass too, just a big ass maching with rollers meant to lay grass down.

Most of the color difference is sun vrs shade. Away=sun and toward=shade. The bedknife and rollers on reel mowers is what lays down the grass blades.

The fancy patterns are done by basically staking out a pattern and using either a broom/brush or an air gun to lay the grass down in a certain direction. A full wooden stencil would possibly mess up the direction of the grass underneath and cause more work.

Incase you are wondering the club with the small stadium is Brechin City from Scotland. It says the initials on the stand

I had a friend in high school that worked at our convention center/arena. He and many others were responsible for changing the floor from wood, to turf, to ice, and back again bevery couple of days at certain times of the year. He also drove the zamboni from time to time. They for sure work hard!

The roller on the back of the roller mower is what does the lines not the weight, using a rotary mower that just has wheels leaves wheel tracks instead of stripes

I dont know i like it more when the grass has fully grown it looks so much less depressing

[onwisconsin]

As a Leicester City fan, those groundskeepers made me proud

[Ruined_Bikes_and_Yardz]

My yard gotta weird shape. Every time I cut it police tell me to quit cutting middle fingers at their helicopters. It took me years before I used Google maps to see my home and realized my whole yard is shaped like a giant green middle finger with my house being shaped like a half glove covered fist...

[SlowSTEN]

We used something called a "Field mower" where i worked, it was like a traditional rotory mower but it had weighted cylinder-rollers that padded down the grass when you drove over it

[SnowingNapalm]

A heavy roller mounted behind the mower does the trick folding the grass properly cutting the grass even barely even matters to it only the way you roll

[EnzoReyna]

Bro love that jersey it's my favorite peruvian club

[tlberg]

Thats the best grass explanation ive ever heard 👌

[ocyupky]

It’s not just cutting. Majority of landscapers I know use a weight behind their lawnmower to apply pressure on grass to lean it a direction

My moms friend was the grounds keeper at Safeco field in Seattle for darn near 20 years+; he gave us a lot of good Mariners tickets; interesting stuff!
