Scope of Work (Football):

FIELDS began the renovation of four existing football fields with demolition of pavements, fencing, drainage, and irrigation. The goalposts were removed for re-installation. The fields were excavated to subgrade, laser-graded, and new sub-drainage systems were installed, utilizing 6” – 18” dia collector pipes, panel drains, slot drains, and perforated pipe. Each field received laser-graded sub-base and top course aggregates. The synthetic turf for the four fields was installed by AstroTurf. FIELDS also installed conduits, irrigation, the nailer curb around each field, concrete walks, and sod, plus the long jump and pole vault at each field.

Scope of Work (Baseball):

The Junior Varsity practice and game fields at Northwest High School received irrigation, infield mix, warning track, mound mix, and sod. Additional work by FIELDS included fencing, gates, and backstops; dugouts; foul poles; batting tunnels; and concrete walks and curbs.
