U-M moves forward on new $6 million soccer stadium

The University of Michigan has plans for improving more than one football stadium. The university’s Board of Regents recently approved plans to build a new $6 million soccer stadium next to the university's
Varsity Tennis Center
on South State Street.
Fields, built last fall, are already there. The project calls for building 2,200 seats and locker facilities around the fields, which will be used by the university’s women’s and men’s soccer teams. There will also be restroom, concession and press facilities.
"Right now there is temporary seating and no locker rooms," says Jeremy Reid, a spokesman for the University of Michigan Athletic Department.
The three soccer fields are located directly behind the U-M Varsity Tennis Center. The main soccer stadium will be the center field. The stretch of land bridges both State and Main streets, but is only accessible from State.
Jickling Lyman Powell Associates wills serve as the project’s architect. A construction time line will be set after the designs are submitted to the
U-M Board of Regents
for approval.
