Construction began on Monday, May 2nd on the new synthetic turf to be installed at Bill Clabo Field. This project began as the fourth turf installation project at a Knox County high school this spring. Powell, Fulton, and Bearden have also began construction on their fields as well.
Construction crews from Baseline Sports Construction, LLC. entered the stadium Monday morning and began removing the existing goalposts at either end of the field. These goalposts will be moved to the practice field and replaced with new ones. The entire construction process will take eight to ten weeks for completion, which is plenty of time for the Admirals to become acclimated with the new surface prior to the home opener with the Powell Panthers on August 19th. Be sure to check back regularly for photos, videos, and updates to the construction process as we continue into the summer!
