New Regional Specialists Join Turf Tank

December 1, 2025/in News, Press Release/by Admin

New Regional Specialists Join Turf Tank: Svenstrup, Denmark, October 31st: Turf Tank – the leading provider of autonomous robots for pitch marking – has expanded its UK team with two key regional appointments to support its growing customer base across the country.

The company has welcomed Cameron Brooke as Field Service & Support Specialist for the North, and Atwa Somobwana as Regional Sales Manager for Central England – two roles designed to bring fast and localised support to customers.

“Having people on the ground across the regions means our customers get help from someone who understands their conditions, their challenges, and their pitches,” said Mike Thomsen, Operations Manager at Turf Tank.

Cameron Brooke joins Turf Tank with over a decade of engineering experience, including international roles in Vietnam, Australia, and across Europe. Based in the North, Cameron will focus on customer onboarding, training, and service.

“I’ve always loved the outdoors and staying active, so being part of a company connected to sport feels like a natural fit,” said Brooke.
Atwa Somobwana, based in Central England, brings more than ten years of experience in sales and business development, previously working with BMI Group and MSX International. His focus will be demonstrations, new partnerships, and regional growth.

“What drew me to Turf Tank is its blend of sports and technology. I’m passionate about how automation and AI can improve efficiency in real world settings, and Turf Tank is a perfect example of that.” said Somobwana.

Atwa attended SALTEX on 12-13 November in Birmingham, Europe’s premier grounds management show, where Turf Tank showcased their line marking robots to an ever increasing number of groundscare professionals.

Turf Tank’s line marking robots are used across the UK, from Premier League stadiums to grassroots clubs and local schools. The robots eliminate the physical effort traditionally involved in pitch marking, allowing one person to paint e.g. a full-sized football or rugby pitch in around 25 minutes, freeing up staff for other tasks.

The expansion of Turf Tank’s UK team ensures customers benefit from dedicated regional expertise and rapid response times for support and service needs.

New fleet delivery and irrigation update

December 1, 2025/in News, Press Release/by Admin

New fleet delivery and irrigation update: Coventry Hearsall Golf Club has been a Toro machinery customer for 13 years and a Toro Total Solutions customer for seven. As the club takes on another machinery renewal agreement with Reesink Turfcare, it provides an update on what it’s like to be exclusively Toro.

The machinery deal is on a five-year rolling contract and although the set up was inherited by Course Manager Chris Low when he joined midway through tenure three years ago, it wasn’t one he had plans on changing.

“I’ve worked with Toro before and being with the same brand for machinery and irrigation makes everything really easy,” says Chris. “The main components of quality, reliability, and performance are applicable to both and having one point of contact, good back up and support and the power of competitive finance in addition means it’s a hard deal to beat.”

The latest fleet deal comprises greens, tees and fairway mowers and utility vehicles, and the biggest change to the fleet set up is bringing in walk-behind mowers – the Toro Greensmaster Flex 1021 – for greens, tees, collars and run-offs. This is, says Chris, a “conscious decision to move away from ride-on mowers for these areas. We think the level of control and precision they will bring to these smaller areas will elevate their aesthetic.”

Work starts on a bunker programme as soon as the architect’s approval is in and some of the machinery choices reflect these changes to the course. “We’ll be creating shorter mowing areas and the machinery investment and selection had this in mind,” Chris continues. “It was felt the Greensmaster TriFlex 3420 and Reelmaster 3575 in particular would work well in these new areas.”

As the first club in the country to upgrade to Toro Lynx central control system and a combination of Infinity, T5 and T7 sprinklers using Reesink Hydro-Scapes’ fixed term finance for irrigation, Coventry Hearsall has been enjoying hassle-free, precise watering application ever since.

“In terms of maintenance all we’ve had to do is replace one decoder in seven years, that’s it,” Chris explains. “It’s been so easy to scale – we’ve doubled the coverage on the approaches and have more run-off areas. We wanted the capacity to expand as needed and the set-up has allowed us to do that. It was undoubtedly the right choice.”

Chris finished by saying it would be wrong to underestimate the power of a Toro Total Solution: “Regular investment in the machinery and an irrigation system that allows for consistent year-round coverage does not go unnoticed by the members. They are happy and membership is full.”
