q      Pick up Trash – remove all trash from:
ü       Stands
ü       Dugouts
ü       Along fences
q      Sweep – use push broom to sweep dirt from grass back onto:
ü       Pitcher’s mound
ü       Home plate area
ü       Base lines
q      Fix holesfill and tamp holes and depressions around:
ü       Pitcher’s mound
ü       Home plate area
q      Rake --
ü       Pitcher’s mound – move dirt from the bottom of the mound to the top. Dirt should be level 
      with the top of the pitching rubber.
ü       Home plate area
ü       Base lines – always rake parallel to the grass line
ü       Base areas – rake a small area around each base to level the dirt and create clearance for
      the lawn tractor when dragging the field
q      Drag the Field – using the lawn tractor and attached drag.
ü       Avoid the bases or use base plugs when dragging
ü       Avoid dragging dirt from the infield onto the grass
ü       Avoid the base lines and home plate area
ü       Close the tractor gate when leaving the field
q      Water the Dirt – you must keep moisture in the dirt! Water each area until the water begins to stand. Ideally, we want to water the entire infield, but as a minimum, water the:
ü       Pitcher’s mound
ü       Home plate area
ü       Base lines
ü       Around bases
