Scope Of Work
The state-of-the-art training facility serves as practice space for the University’s varsity sports programs, in addition to the competitive home of the UC women’s lacrosse team. Construction included two lighted fields, one 100 yards in length and the other 50 yards. The 100-yard field will also become a seasonal indoor practice facility during winter months via an air-supported “bubble” that will be inflated over the field. The bubble, which will be erected from late November to late February, will maintain an interior ambient temperature between 50-60 degrees. The complex also helped the University go green. A 4,000,000 gallon cast in place concrete chilled water thermal storage tank was installed under the 50-yard field to assist with the University’s air conditioning systems.
