It’s an incredible opportunity for our school because we are landlocked. Just having the opportunity to get outside, learn out here, play out here, and come together is a real opportunity for us all. It’s a wonderful facility, and we are so impressed with the workmanship of Urban Soccer Park. They have put together such an incredible facility—it’s professional, safe, and fun.
