Park Development • 17th Avenue Sports Complex

The city’s second major sports complex is located on 17th Avenue east of Sun Path Elementary School. This project involves the construction of approximately 40 acres of fields, primarily designed for soccer. The first phase of the project, which has been completed, included field construction, parking, irrigation, turf establishment, and landscaping. The second phase involves construction of a restroom, storage, and support building for the complex. Once complete, the complex will serve as a premier sports complex for the southwest metropolitan area.
