Construction of Newfoundland and Labrador's first indoor soccer facility is currently under way. This facility is being constructed in St. John's just across from Country Ribbon in Pleasantville. Earlier today I dropped by to see how the construction on this building was going . I was informed that progress is well on schedule, the buildings footings are completed and assemblying the steel frame work, as you can see in the above photo, is under way.
A big Boost !!
There is no doubt that this facility will be a big boost for provincial soccer and I'm sure the provinces elite and all-star programs will greatly benefit from this new facility. Soccer will be able to be played year round, for the first time in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Provincial Indoor Tournaments
Today when I was sizing up this facility, I felt maybe we can get back to having Provincial Indoor Soccer Tournaments that will be sanctioned by the NLSA. With this new facility there will be no down time in provincial soccer and if we are going to grow our sport, that's what we need. Hopefully, KGV will get back on stream for the spring and Santa Claus can get the kids some new soccer equipment for Christmas. I'll keep you posted on this new facility as I see it happening
