York City School District Multisport Field Design-Build | York, PA

Project Summary

Keystone Sports Construction recently completed a design-build for Multisport Field and Throwing Event Areas in York, Pennsylvania.

The Client

The School District of the City of York is home to the Bearcats. Its schools serve the York community and include William Penn Senior High School.

The Challenge

The project required converting the grass playing area and coordinating drainage, turf construction, throwing areas, and supporting field equipment.

Construction Process

This design-build project consisted of several phases, starting with the excavation of the existing grass field and the removal of pre-existing fixtures and structures. Next, a new stormwater drainage system was installed, and a newly constructed stone sub-base was laser graded. Following that, Keystone installed a new slit film synthetic turf system for the field.

Additionally, new training events for discus and shot put were installed, along with paved walkways around the field. Additionally, new chain-link fencing has been installed around the fields’ perimeter, along with backstopping, ball barrier netting, and roll-out fencing for baseball and softball. Dugouts were installed for both the baseball and softball fields.

Musco sports lighting was then installed along with three scoreboards.
