Volunteer coaches for KIDSPORTS programs left their mark on the new Civic Park facility under construction in south Eugene.

The coaches signed the cement foundations last week where the foundation of the facilitys ground floor courts wood flooring will be installed next month. It served to honor the volunteer coaches and their efforts in making local programs possible.

The ground floor of the facility, off Amazon Parkway between East 19th and East 24th avenues, hosts four middle school-size basketball courts which can convert to two NCAA-size courts and be used for volleyball, pickleball, badminton, wrestling, futsal and more, according to a news release from Eugene Civic Alliance.

Between now and the June 6 grand opening, a variety of projects must be completed: finishing the field house interiors, laying the gym floors, landscape work, final paving, finishing construction of the ticket booth, setting up bleacher seating and other projects, according to Carly Demanett, Eugene Civic Alliance media and communications director.

Phase one construction costs equal $30 million with $5.5 million still left to raise. The project remains on schedule.

Eugene Civic Alliance anticipates having the keys in hand by May 21.
