EP.53 Keeper Of The Greens - Simon Snedden (Gold Creek Country Club)

Keeper Of The Greens is proudly brought to you by Colin Campbell Chemicals. Click their name and it will take you straight to their website. I'm so excited to fire Keeper Of The Greens back up with a new interview and some new questions for Steve's Super Seven! This time I head to the Australian capital city of Canberra in the A.C.T. and catch up with Superintendent Simon Snedden of Gold Creek Country Club. Growing up in regional NSW, Simon had a talent for rugby league and was quickly snapped up by a major NRL club. He left the country for the city lights and during his time training he got a taste for what was involved in maintaining sports turf. Come along for a sporting story with Simon as we chat about his time playing rugby league at a young age, the connection of sport and country life and Simon's steep career path in greenkeeping before getting the top job at one of Canberra's well known golf clubs.
