SUNY New Paltz Athletics

The South Turf Field opened during the fall of the 2014-15 academic year, providing additional space for intramural's, both varsity soccer teams and men's lacrosse. Some of the field's features include a multi-sport scoreboard; a 4-foot PVC-coated fence around the perimeter, with four 12-foot-wide double gates at each corner for greater player access and egress; a 20-foot safety net; a 30-foot flagpole and a handicap-accessible walkway from the road to the field. Underneath the field, a state-of-the-art drainage system includes a water collection device to filter the water exiting the field before it enters the town's storm water line.
