Husqvarna backs Liverpool FC for US pre-season tour

Liverpool Football Club have announced that Husqvarna, their supplier of smart mowing and robotic tech, will be part of their men’s team’s pre-season tour in the United States.

The Swedish company will provide its robotic turf care solutions at the training ground in Chicago, aiming to deliver “professional quality turf while supporting the grounds crew with efficient, precision mowing.”

Warren Scott, Senior Grounds Manager, Liverpool Football Club, commented:

“Providing our players with the best possible training surface is always the priority, no matter where we are. Having Husqvarna Automower robotic mowers maintaining the landscaped areas around the training facility in Chicago gives our team confidence that the site is being consistently maintained while allowing our grounds crew to focus on the finer details that make a difference.”

Jason Connor, Director of Commercial Robotics, Husqvarna North America, added:

“When one of the world’s most recognized football clubs chooses to rely on Automower technology away from home, it speaks volumes about the trust they’ve placed in our solutions. We’re proud to support our partner Liverpool FC during its U.S. preseason tour and help the grounds team deliver the exceptional playing surfaces the club expects wherever it trains.“

The Reds roped in Husqvarna as their official groundskeeping partner on a multi-year deal in July 2024, having already been using its robotic mowers to maintain the pitches of their stadiums and training centres since 2021.

The partnership entails Husqvarna’s products and solutions being “more deeply integrated into LFC’s groundskeeping teams’ daily routines and pitch upkeep, making them a key part of creating and maintaining optimal pitch conditions for elite-level playing and training.”
