Mount Royal University has celebrated the completion of the $2M overhaul of its Cougars Stadium Field. The renovations included a new artificial turf, team benches, a digital scoreboard and video board, a sound system, and Cougars-branded fencing around the field’s perimeter. The Calgary Herald reports that the artificial turf will allow MRU’s soccer teams the opportunity to use the field nearly year-round, while opening up the opportunity for community soccer teams and leagues to use the space. The field will be officially unveiled at the men’s soccer team’s home opener in September.
