The entire community is invited to the grand opening of Morgan Hill’s Outdoor Sports Center on Friday, Nov. 16.

Festivities will begin at 6:00 p.m. and last until 8:00 p.m.

The evening will include food, fun, giveaways, and an opportunity to try out the new synthetic turf fields by joining in on field games.

Everyone is encouraged to attend this evening of celebrating the newest addition to Morgan Hill’s outstanding recreation facilities.

The Outdoor Sports Center received a major “sports lift” this Fall and now provides two great playing surfaces for championship games under sport lights, or a scheduled practice on synthetic turf. The first priority for the field development was to meet the local youth sport field recreational needs and to complement existing programs and field uses at sites throughout the city. Phase one provides field space for those users that require multi-purpose type fields such as soccer, football, lacrosse and rugby.

The improvements made in this phase feature:

Two synthetic turf fields with lights, concessions area with ice machine, refrigeration and preparation space, barbecue area, drinking fountains, restrooms, family changing rooms, meeting/workroom with ticket window, bleachers for 600 on main field with shade structure, bleachers for 200 on secondary field, announcers stand at main field, electronic scoreboards, participant misters, players’ team benches, 325 parking spaces and 50 street spaces not including Aquatics area.

The remaining grass fields will be deferred to future phases and will remain grass surfaces with California Youth Soccer Association (CYSA) as operator.

The Outdoor Sports Center is located at 16500 Condit Road adjacent to the Aquatics Center. For further details about the event for use of the new synthetic turf fields, contact Phyllis Dieter at 408.782.0008.
