把握春天的脉动——西丽春季保养计划|XiliSpringMaintenanceProgram ...
国人有句谚语，一年之计在于春。
随着2019年春天的到来，西丽草坪部又紧锣密鼓地开始了新一轮球场草坪的养护作业，包括果岭、发球台、球道、长草区的打孔、梳草、放沙和施肥。
The Spring has arrived and as the proverb says, "make your whole year's plans in the spring". Therefore our Golf Maintenance Team has started the annual Spring maintenance program, which includes verticutting, aerification, topdressing and fertilizing, on the green, teeing area, fairway and rough zones.
每次我们进行打孔作业，许多会员会有疑问，关于我们正在做什么以及为什么要这样做？打孔是保持草面健康和良好状态的重要程序。它实现了三个重要目标：它缓解了土壤板结，提供了一种方法来改良在果岭草根部最高处的周围土壤混合物质的成分，并减少或预防多余枯草层的累积。
Each time we aerify, we get questions from members about what we are doing and why we are doing it ? Aeration is an essential program to keep playing surfaces healthy and in good condition. It achieves three important objectives. It relieves soil compaction, it provides a method to improve the soil mixture around the highest part of a green’s roots and it reduces or prevents the accumulation of excess thatch.
像许多事情一样，良好的球场条件，其质量不仅体现在表面。事实上，草坪的状况与表面之下有更大的关系。为了生长，草必须具有深且健康的根部。良好的根需要氧气。只有在良好的土壤中，根部才能从土壤和沙粒之间的微小气穴中获取氧气。
Like so many things, the quality of a good course condition is more than skin deep. In fact, the condition of the turf has a lot to do with what goes on below the surface. In order for grass to grow, it must have deep, healthy roots. Good roots demand oxygen. In good soil, they get the oxygen from tiny pockets of air trapped between soil and sand particles.
随着时间的推移，来自高尔夫球员脚部（以及剪草设备）的压力往往会压紧草下的土壤。当土壤板结时，根部赖以生存的气穴被压碎，基本处于真空状态。没有氧气，草变得虚弱，最终枯萎至死。
Over time, the traffic from golfers’ feet (as well as mowing equipment) tends to compact the soil underneath the grass. When soil becomes compacted, the air pockets on which the roots depend are crushed, and the roots are essentially left gasping for air. Without oxygen, the grass plants become weaker and will eventually wither and die.
成功管理好高尔夫球场，预防性养护是不可或缺的一部分。我们希望各位会员现在都能更好地了解，打孔对于维持草皮健康的重要性。
Preventative maintenance is an integral part of successful golf course management. We hope every member will now have a better understanding and just how important aerification is to producing healthy turf.
这项大型年度草坪养护工作，已于三月初开始，将在四月底完成。
This annual maintenance project started at the beginning of March and will be completed by the end of April.
进入五月后，西丽球场将正式启动36个洞的喷灌系统改造项目，包括泵房水泵、场地管、支管道管网以及喷头的更新。这将是今年球会的重大建设项目，预计18个月内完成。我们将在未来的一个月内与会员们分享这项改造计划的详细方案和改造期间球场运作的相关调整。敬请各位会员关注！
Starting from May the course irrigation renovation project will take place. The project includes updating the central irrigation system, renewing all the old pipes underneath the ground and updating the sprinkler heads throught out the golf course. This will be the biggest project of the year, which is expected to be completed in 18 months. We will keep you posted on the details of the project and any golf operational changes in the coming few months.
另外，草坪部将在今年开展部分发球台的扩建工程，在C4和C8洞分别增建一座发球台，以期减轻蓝Tee的过度使用。球场景观方面的更新，将“更上一层楼”！A2、A5及D9 洞的全新景观规划，用特色与新意，带给您惊喜。
In addition, the GCM team will begin to expand some of the tee boxes on some Par 3s around the course, i.e. Add an extra tee on C4 and A8, as it will help to reduce the excessive use of the current Blue Tee. We are also planning to improve some of the landscaping design on the course, the new plan for A2, A5 and D9 will surprise you and give a new feeling to this hole.
西丽全体员工，感谢各位会员的理解与支持。让我们共同期待并见证，2019西丽高尔夫持续优化和提升的球场品质！
As always we would like to thank you for your understanding and onging support. Let us look forward to 2019 and the subtle changes that will bring you improved course conditions!
