Matthew Axton jumped out of his comfort zone from the cricket pitch in the United Kingdom all the way to The Royal Golf Club in Bahrain. A rare find in our field, Matthew studied turf equipment and won a National Vocational Qualification Award which was presented by none other than Prince Phillip. Find out what it’s like to be Workshop Manager on an island in the Persian Gulf where Matthew faces challenges such as weeks delays to receive parts, and has unique opportunities like working with a multicultural staff. We learn about the mezzanine storage Matthew created to take advantage of wasted air space in the shop and discuss the uphill battle our industry faces in building the pipeline of qualified technicians.
