Work on upgrades began earlier this year to transition four grass field to turf, install stadium lighting, expand the parking infrastructure and renovate the indoor turn arena. Buccini Pollin Group’s sports management firm celebrated the capital improvements completion on Oct. 29 with an evening of free, open play and Halloween activities that was attended by nearly 500 kids and their families, according to a release from the firm. “Sprinturf is a major draw for Delaware, and we’re proud to invest in a top-of-the-line facility that will keep bringing coaches, players, families, and out-of-state dollars to our community,” BPG founder Rob Buccini said in a release. “These capital improvements will solidify the complex as a premier tournament destination for many years to come." The facility's name change comes after BPG Sports designated turf manufacturer Sprinturf its official turf partner across its portfolio and as the exclusive title naming rights partner of the facility near New Castle.
