Elizabethtown Sports Park

Angela Shoemaker for the New York Times
The Motz Group has begun working on a brand new 150-acre sports complex in Elizabethtown Kentucky. 
The new park, expected to open July 2012, will accommodate events and tournaments for many sports including football, soccer, baseball, softball, lacrosse, and field hockey.

As detailed in the New York Times article, "the 150-acre Elizabethtown Sports Park, set to open next summer, will have 12 baseball and softball diamonds, 10 natural turf soccer and football fields, 2 full-size synthetic turf fields and a diamond for physically disabled athletes. The sports park also includes powerful lighting, six concession buildings, pavilions to house meeting spaces and locker rooms, four playgrounds, Wi-Fi access so events can be viewed live on the Internet and a three-mile-long running and walking path that circles the complex."

"It will be one of the largest such complexes in the country, with the ability to host four- and five-day tournaments that will attract hundreds of teams and thousands of spectators from across the Southeast."


At 126,000 square feet each, The Motz Group will be building the two largest fields in the complex.  While these particular fields will be used for those needing open space and synthetic turf, their primary purpose is to serve as the championship fields for football and soccer tournaments.

SportGrass®, the system that The Motz Group will be installing, is made with premium monofilament fibers that provide the look and feel of natural grass.  The athletes playing on the SportGrass fields will experience safe conditions on a sure footed high performance turf system with superior playing characteristics.
