At Howardson Group, our people are at the heart of everything we do. This week, we’re delighted to introduce Aleksandrs Obodovs (Alex), our new Warehouse and Logistics Manager, who brings with him a wealth of experience, fresh ideas and a passion for teamwork and improvement.

Turfcare professionals gathered at Pike Hills Golf Club, York, for an exclusive Dennis & SISIS Groundcare Education Event -a day dedicated to learning, innovation and celebrating the passion behind world-class turf management. Despite forecasts predicting a storm, the weather held out, offering a cool and breezy day that stayed dry -perfect conditions for an outdoor machinery demonstration.

SISIS will once again bring a proven lineup of professional turf maintenance machinery to SALTEX 2025, highlighting solutions trusted by grounds teams across sports pitches, golf courses and fine turf venues worldwide. Built for durability and serviceability, every SISIS machine is engineered to deliver consistent results where performance matters most.

Visby Golf Club, located on the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea, is consistently ranked as Sweden’s number one golf course. With its spectacular coastal setting, immaculate fairways and smooth-rolling greens, it attracts golfers from across the world. But maintaining those standards under constant pressure takes experience, dedication and the right equipment.
For nearly two decades, Course Manager Petter Lindblad has been leading Visby through the unique challenges of its coastal location. “Our biggest challenges are excess water in the low points and the heavy play pressure. We need to work efficiently and quickly while maintaining high quality.”

At SISIS, we know the strength of our global network lies in working closely with our dealers and the turf professionals they serve. This month, Tom Worthy, Regional Sales Director EMEA, travelled to Sweden to support our long-standing dealer HAKO at their special golf event, which brought together greenkeepers and course managers from across the country.
