Progress on Knight Stadium is underway! Visit the Construction at Calvin home page for more information.
Phase 1 ✔
During the fall of 2023, the following Phase 1 outdoor athletics construction projects were completed:
- New Zuidema Soccer Field (map and directions).
- New track and adjacent spaces for various field throwing events at Gainey Athletic Fields.
- Cross country course redesign and a new practice soccer and lacrosse field.
Phase 2 ✔
Construction was completed on our soccer stadium, which included locker rooms for men’s and women’s soccer, along with a building to house Calvin’s new football program. The football building includes a permanent football locker room, outdoor athletic training facilities, laundry, equipment storage, as well as mechanical space.
The heating and cooling of the soccer stadium and football buildings is provided by a new geothermal energy system, advancing Calvin’s commitment to creation care and sustainability. Its underground 3.78 mile vertical loop is adjacent to the soccer stadium.
Phase 3 ✔
Calvin’s football team will practice on the new turf and will play at the soccer stadium temporarily (until Knight Stadium is completed).
