Latest FEGGA Newsletter – Talking Turf

FEGGA recently had the pleasure of attending the German Greenkeepers Association Annual Meeting. This year they were celebrating 25 years, and in doing so, paid recognition to two Presidents that have taken them through this period. Hubert Kleiner (pictured right) stepped down following 16 years. Here he is pictured with Claus Ratjen, who was President for the first 9 years. Claus was also one of the founders of FEGGA and was Chairman during 2000. Two great ambassadors of our profession.
FEGGA are delighted to be supporting the Slovenia and Bulgarian Greenkeepers Association by taking their Development Roadshow to their respective annual Conference days during the 14-17 November 2017. The Roadshows are part of the FEGGA development intiative in partnership with the R&A in supporting new developing golf nations. Read More
