Capital Sports Construction, Inc. completed foundational base work at John Hunt Park in Huntsville, AL to support construction of two new synthetic turf multi-purpose fields. These fields are designed to accommodate community recreation, athletics, and multi-use programming — providing durable, all-weather surfaces capable of handling heavy usage.
Our work ensures that John Hunt Park now has a reliable base infrastructure built to modern sports construction standards, setting the stage for long-term performance and versatility.
The project began with a comprehensive site evaluation at John Hunt Park, analyzing existing terrain, soil conditions, drainage patterns, and field usage needs. Engineering plans defined precise grading, subsurface drainage pathways, and structural base specifications to support two synthetic turf fields, accommodating recreational and athletic activities under heavy rotation.
Base work included removal of existing surface materials, grading, and creation of engineered sub-bases for both fields. Key tasks included:
This comprehensive foundation work ensures long-term structural stability and reliable performance once turf is installed.
Though the turf surfacing itself is scheduled as a separate phase, our base work lays the critical groundwork for future synthetic turf installation. The prepared fields will support heavy use, withstand varied weather conditions, and provide consistent foundation quality for high-performance turf systems.
With the base work phase complete, John Hunt Park is prepared for installation of two high-quality synthetic turf fields. The foundational improvements — including drainage infrastructure and engineered sub-base — ensure that future turf installations will deliver consistent performance, durability, and longevity under heavy usage.
Once turf is installed, the fields will provide community members and local athletics programs with weather-resistant, low-maintenance playing surfaces suitable for multiple sports and recreational activities, enhancing the park’s value and usability.
John Hunt Park is a public park facility in Huntsville, AL, serving the local community with a variety of recreational amenities. The recent base work prepares the park to expand its offerings with two new synthetic turf multi-purpose fields that will support athletics, recreation leagues, and community events with durability and reliability.
