Frisco, Texas – The continued partnership between FC Dallas and Paragon Sports Constructors is evident this week as construction teams start the final phases of work renovating Field No. 2 also known as Dr. Pink Field at the Major League Soccer club’s Frisco facility, Toyota Stadium and Toyota Soccer Center.
“I am very pleased with our relationship with Paragon Sports. They did a great job on our first field in 2012. The quality of the product and construction are of the highest level. I look forward to the newest field that they are putting in at Dr. Pink Field. Paragon Sports Constructors has helped make Toyota Soccer Center one of the finest soccer complexes in North America” Dan Hunt, VP Hunt Sports Group.
Paragon Sports Constructors renovated Field No. 3 at the training complex in 2012 to replace the synthetic turf surface and improve drainage and playability of the field. Now, in 2013, Paragon Sports will be providing the same improvements to Dr. Pink Field and plans to have the project complete by the end of October. The renovations to Dr. Pink Field carry added importance because it also serves as a supplemental stadium for Frisco Independent School District.
“Paragon Sports Constructors built the field at Memorial Stadium in 2000 and all of our student athletes practice and play on fields constructed by them. They have proven to be a consistent provider of quality work and we are excited to know that our students will have another quality field to compete on,” David Kuykendall, Frisco ISD Athletic Director.
“We are very excited about continuing our relationship with FC Dallas, Hunt Sports Group and the Toyota Stadium and Toyota Soccer Center through this project,” said William Chaffe, President of Paragon Sports Constructors. “It is an affirmation of our quality of work and services.”
