The Challenge
The Wakefield School District recognized the need for a dedicated sports complex where athletes, coaches, and community members could gather, support student-athletes, and stay active. To bring this vision to life, the district sought an experienced design-builder who could deliver a high-quality facility while navigating the supply chain challenges and cost uncertainties that arose during a period of widespread construction disruption. The result was a brand-new stadium featuring a synthetic turf football field, running track, and a variety of site amenities designed to serve the entire community.
