The Racecourse Association Limited is delighted to announce that a new sponsorship agreement has been achieved for the much coveted Racecourse Groundstaff Awards. The annual Awards are the only awards in British Horseracing which recognise and celebrate the hard work, dedication and significant contribution of racecourse groundstaff teams across the country.

Existing sponsors Pitchcare and Watt Fences have agreed to continue their support of the awards, and will be joined in 2016 by Fornells, one of the leading suppliers of running rail.

Awards are presented to the winning Flat, Jump, and Dual Purpose Racecourses, of which one team will be crowned overall Racecourse Groundstaff Champions at the 2016 RCA Showcase Awards.
