Wisconsin Sports Network (WSN) and Midwest Sport & Turf Systems (MWSTS) announce the return of a partnership that will put a spotlight on some of the incredible high school athletic facilities provided and installed by MWSTS in the state of Wisconsin, and give schools the chance to compete for a $1,000 cash donation to their football program.
A fast-growing Midwest-based company specializing in sports construction and synthetic turf related projects, Midwest Sport & Turf Systems has installed and serviced many of the turf fields that have become increasingly popular at schools around the state. To highlight these communities and their investments in their young people and student-athletes, WSN and MWSTS will select 57 recent MWSTS football fields to be featured as part of the Home Field Pride campaign.
These 57 incredible athletic fields installed by MWSTS will be split into five groups, and each week on WisSports.net, fans can vote on which field design and construction they think is the best. After the five preliminary rounds, the top vote-getter in each round plus the next three highest vote-getters overall will move on to the finals, where the winner will receive a $1,000 cash donation from Midwest Sport & Turf Systems.
Last year's winner of the Home Field Pride Contest, South Milwaukee's Spaltholz Field, joins Delavan-Darien's Borg Stadium and Amherst's Heartland Farms Field as past winners, and is moved to emeritus status and a new 2024 winner will be crowned.
So follow along beginning Saturday, October 14th and vote for your favorite in each of the weekly preliminary rounds and the finals, which will be conducted from Saturday, October 21st to Thursday, October 26th. If your school is selected, be sure to share with your school and community, and encourage your supporters to vote once per day per device!
