Capital Sports Construction, Inc. partnered with Jenkins High School in Savannah, GA to upgrade the campus athletic complex. The project included installation of a new synthetic turf surface on the main field, a full resurfacing of the running track, and construction of a dedicated throws area (for discus/shotput). These enhancements provide a modern, durable and multi-use athletic environment capable of hosting football, track & field, and field-event practices and competitions.
This comprehensive upgrade reflects a commitment to athletic performance, safety, and long-term facility value, providing students and faculty with reliable, all-weather surfaces designed for heavy use and diverse athletic programming.
The project began with evaluation of existing athletic facility conditions — including field grade, soil stability, drainage patterns, and layout of track/field-event zones. Engineering plans were developed to ensure proper base design for synthetic turf, track surfacing, and the throws area foundation, including grading and drainage systems to support all-weather performance.
Construction included removal of prior surface materials and grading to create a stable sub-base across the field, track, and throws pit zones. Work consisted of:
These tasks ensured a uniform, stable foundation suitable for high-performance synthetic and track surfaces.
The main field received a robust synthetic turf system engineered for football, general athletics, and heavy usage. Installation included turf laying, infill setup, and secure seam-edge finishing to ensure durability. Surrounding the turf field, a new multi-layer track surface was applied to support sprinting, distance running, and field-event approach/exit zones. The throws pit was finalized with proper surfacing and layout to support discus and shot put practice safely and reliably.
With the completion of these upgrades, Jenkins High School now enjoys a modern, multi-functional athletic complex that supports football, track & field, and field-event training and competition. The synthetic turf field delivers consistent performance and safety; the new track surface offers reliable, all-weather performance for sprinters and distance runners; and the dedicated throws area supports discipline-specific event practice under safe, regulation-quality conditions.
These enhancements reduce maintenance demands, extend facility longevity, and provide the school with the infrastructure needed to support expanded athletics programming. Coaches, students, and the community benefit from improved scheduling flexibility and a facility capable of withstanding frequent, high-intensity use.
