Pitching Mound Work?

CoachB25Honorary "Old TImer"

We are hosting a Regional again this year and we have clay brick in our landing area. However, the tarp was left off over the summer and we seem to have developed a hole. It reappears each game and now, I'm thinking of purchasing a "Jox Box" for our mound. This product is put in and then a couple of inches of dirt is put over the top of it. If anyone has any experience with it reply here or send me a pm. Any other suggestions would also be welcomed.

B52, I know not of the Jox-box but have experience w/ mound maint. The mound requires regular, if not daily maint. including raking, filling, tamping, watering, tarping, etc. The mound takes the most abuse during the course of the game and a regular maint. program is vital to a good pitching platform. The batter's and catcher's box require similar service.
