9 multi-field and soccer field improvements in four (4) categories: Synthetic Turf ($200,000), Lighting ($50,000), Irrigation $15,000) and Sport Court ($65,000). Safe Places to Play grant awards for field improvements come as in-kind credit with a specific vendor. Typically, a field improvement project will cost more than the vendor credit.

This funding can be applied toward new field construction or the refurbishment of existing turf fields. Lighting grants are awarded for the purchase of Musco Lighting products to light futsal, natural grass, or synthetic turf fields. Funding does not cover installation. Irrigation grants are awarded for the purchase of Hunter Irrigation products to irrigate natural grass or synthetic turf fields (while irrigation is not required for synthetic turf, it is recommended for cleaning and cooling purposes). Funding does not cover installation. Sport Court grants are awarded for the installation of Sport Court, which is an innovative modular (non-turf) sports surface that delivers superior playability, speed, safety, shock absorption, and traction that is perfect for small-sided soccer or futsal. With its engineering-grade polypropylene surface, a Sport Court is quick to install and can be easily customized to fit the needs of your soccer project.
