In the Fall of 2023, our teams began practices and competitions on our new synthetic turf field. More teams than ever will use this surface to practice and compete because of its ability to withstand the wear and tear of multiple events in a week, no matter what Minnesota weather conditions deliver.
Now through the $1.8 million Phase II to BUILD THE HILL, we have the chance to improve the experience for our FIRE fans who passionately cheer on our teams from the hill.
