VIRGINIA TRACK WATERING SCHEDULE

The GOTBA have advised of a resourcing change for the responsibility of irrigating the Virginia grass track. This will result in a more targeted approach to track watering and the presentation of the track differing to what participants may have become accustomed to.

Whilst the look of the track may have changed, the GOTBA is committed to presenting a safe and consistent surface, particularly through the summer months.
