Lincoln Sports Foundation Announces $1.2 Million Facility Renovation
The Lincoln Sports Foundation (LSF) announced Wednesday its plans of a $1.2 million upgrade to the south half of its indoor athletic facility.
The renovation includes the installation of six new hardwood basketball courts, ceiling-suspended basketball systems, court divider curtains and a reconfigured layout expanding volleyball capacity from six to 10 courts.
Construction will begin in early August and is expected to be completed by Nov. 1. During this time, the courts at the facility will be closed to the public for renovations.
“Visit Lincoln is thrilled about the improvements the Lincoln Sports Foundation is making,” said Derek Bombeck, director of sports for Visit Lincoln. “These upgrades will increase capacity and enhance opportunities to build relationships and bid on major sporting events. We look forward to LSF’s continued success in making Lincoln the Midwest’s premier sports tourism destination.”
CCU Holds Ribbon Cutting for New Indoor Practice Facility
Coastal Carolina University hosted a ribbon cutting for a major project that’s been years in the making.
CCU held the event for its brand-new indoor practice facility on Wednesday morning.
CCU officials call the new facility a game changer, saying that it gives the university the extra space they have needed for a long time.
The university first broke ground on the $20 million, 93,000-square-foot indoor facility that sits across from Brooks Stadium in September 2023.
Goodyear High School Building Championship Dreams With Elite Sports Facilities
From the sound of saws cutting floorboards to the sight of sweat dripping down the faces of construction workers working on football stadium bleachers, the foundation of Goodyear High School is turning heads in anticipation of its inaugural school year.
Goodyear High School broke ground last September and will welcome only freshmen students on Aug. 5.
A primary focus for inaugural principal Jason Linn has been the development of the sports facilities. He knows that to compete with other rising sports programs, such as the Canyon View Jaguars and Verrado Vipers, the Mavericks must have advanced sports facilities to attract and develop athletes into stars.
Before accepting his role at Goodyear, Linn worked with Desert Edge for over 15 years as the school’s strength and conditioning coach and then athletic director. With this experience and knowledge, he understands the effective components that will satisfy and support athletes. He also wants to make sure families understand that the small details matter, from retractable railings for basketball games to expanded seating for the home crowd at football games.
