“Soccer is extremely popular in Vaughan and for those of us who enjoy the beautiful game, this new field is a great addition to our City,” said Mayor Bevilacqua. “As a former player with the National Soccer League, I know the benefits of well-equipped training and playing facilities and how they help to produce elite soccer players. Vaughan is well-known in the international soccer community and more than 20,000 Vaughan youth and adults are registered in soccer programs throughout the year.”

 

Located at 100 Sunset Ridge, the field measures 110 by 68 metres and is built to FIFA 1 Star standards for a senior artificial turf soccer field. If features bleacher seating which can accommodate up to 140 people, a sports lighting system, scoreboard, players benches, asphalt walkway and chain-link fencing.

The Kleinburg Nobleton Soccer Club contributed $125,000 to the construction of the field.
