Building a Shared Field for Growth

Project Overview

When Edgewood College’s soccer and lacrosse teams needed a new home, and the Madison Area Youth Soccer Association (MAYSA) had the space but needed infrastructure, the two organizations came together with a shared vision. The result: a multipurpose turf field at Reddan Soccer Park that now hosts collegiate and youth teams year-round.

To bring the facility to life, they partnered with Keeper Goals. With decades of experience and a focus on thoughtful planning, Keeper Goals provided the right solutions for a complex, multi-use environment.

Challenge

Creating a shared-use field for soccer and lacrosse, serving both college teams and youth programs, came with challenges:

  • Equipment needed to be mobile, durable, and easy to use.
  • Safe play and spectating required thoughtful protective systems.
  • Storage, shelter, and media space had to be integrated into a tight footprint.
  • Budget constraints required value without compromising quality.

  • Multi-sport field complex shared by soccer and lacrosse teams.

  • Hybrid backup netting with varied mesh sizes withstands impact from both soccer and lacrosse balls.

  • Full-size, game-quality lacrosse goals used by Madison Edgewood College.

  • Heavy-duty lacrosse goal cart allows quick, one-person transport of goals on and off the field.

  • Covered five-row bleachers protect spectators from the elements.

  • Three-row bleachers with black risers reduce sun glare and complement the facility’s color scheme.

  • Custom-branded electronic scoreboard supports both soccer and lacrosse.

  • Four sets of wheeled team shelters offer mobility and protection from the weather.

  • Wheeled Stadium Cup soccer goals offer mobility for training and easy repositioning for events.

  • Nestled in the community, this shared field now serves as home for Madison Edgewood College Men’s and Women’s Soccer and Lacrosse teams.

  • Press box includes storage below for practice gear and game-day equipment, with garage door access.

  • Elevated press box offers ideal media vantage point and storage space below.

Solution

Keeper Goals helped solve these needs by providing equipment and infrastructure tailored to the field’s unique demands.

Sideline Shelters
Box-style shelters provide cover for players and coaches, with built-in wheels for easy positioning based on the event type.

Press Box with Storage
A compact press box gives game-day staff visibility and functionality—while offering space beneath for storing gear and practice equipment.

Hybrid Backstop Netting
A custom netting system offers protection from both lacrosse and soccer balls, helping keep adjacent fields safe without overextending the project budget.

Mobility-Focused Equipment
From wheeled stadium soccer goals to a heavy-duty lacrosse goal cart, mobility was prioritized to allow fast, safe transitions between uses.

Bleachers Built for Comfort & Style
Three-row bleachers feature dark risers to reduce glare and enhance the facility’s overall aesthetic.

Durable Lacrosse Goals
Heavy-duty goals support frequent, high-intensity use by teams at all levels.
