Summary
The Mobile County Soccer Plex, which logged about 30,000 visits in the first half of the year, will add four more fields, new parking and spectator seating. The speaker said the new fields should be sodded and ready for play by the start of the year if grass takes root as expected.
A Mobile County commissioner (name not specified in the transcript) said the Mobile County Soccer Plex is expanding, adding four new fields to the three already completed and in use.
The commissioner said the Soccer Plex recorded roughly 30,000 visits in the first half of the year and that the new fields were approaching the point where they could be sodded; the speaker said grass would need time to root before play. "They're getting close. They should be at the point very soon where they can be sodded, and then we have to allow the grass to take root and grow in. And hopefully, by the first of the year, they will be ready for play," the commissioner said. The speaker also mentioned planned parking and spectator seating to support increased use and visiting teams.
No event schedule, tournament commitments, or funding line items were listed in the remarks. The commissioner framed the expansion as serving local residents and out-of-county visitors.
