Recreational sports at the University of North Georgia received a "major boost" recently when the University System of Georgia Board of Regents approved four intramural fields on UNG's Dahlonega Campus.
The $2.9 million project will include four 100-yard-by-40-yard fields, lights, irrigation, an equipment building with restrooms, and a 100-space parking lot located on Radar Ridge behind the UNG Soccer Complex. If plans to begin moving dirt later this year come to fruition, the new fields could be in use by spring 2020.
The fields also will provide a new option for club sports teams to practice and host games, as those teams have relied on community fields.
Funds for the new fields will come from student activity fees, auxiliary reserves, and institutional funds.
