CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
THRU: Don Marr, Chief of Staff
Connie Edmonston, Parks and Recreation Director
FROM: Byron Humphry, Parks Maintenance Superintendent
DATE: November 12, 2015
SUBJECT: Resolution to Purchase Soccer Goals from BSN Sports and Budget
Adjustment
RECOMMENDATION:
Parks and Recreation requests City Council approval of a resolution to authorize the City to
purchase thirty-two (32) pair of soccer goals from BSN Sports for $85,623 and approval of a
budget adjustment from Parks Development Funds.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Fayetteville is currently constructing Phase I of the Regional Park including soccer
fields for youth soccer. The City's existing soccer program is programmed on land leased from
the University of Arkansas. This lease will expire in 2018 and will not be renewed.
State Representative Charlie Collins, District 84, recommended the GIF grant application to the
City for a $50,000 project to purchase soccer goals for the Regional Park soccer complex. The
soccer goals would be used for league play as well as hosting tournaments that would bring in
tourism money. This will assist city and state wide efforts in economic and community
development. On June 19, 2015, the City was awarded the $50,000 GIF grant and on July 21,
2015, City Council passed Resolution 122-15 to accept the grant for the purchase of soccer
goals for the Regional Park.
In September 2015, the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) and the State Association that
sanctions the City's soccer leagues, issued a recommendation to scale down soccer field sizes
and goals to better fit age groups and create safer playing conditions. To fully comply with this
recommendation, thirty-two (32) pairs of soccer goals are needed.
DISCUSSION:
The GIF Grant was originally intended to be used to update existing goals that are worn out and
begin the transition to all aluminum goals which are lighter and safer than existing steel goals.
The recent recommendation of the USSF to utilize smaller, age appropriate soccer goals and
field sizes, prevents staff from utilizing some of the existing goals due to size differences. An
additional $35,623 is needed to completely resize and update all of the soccer goals to be
utilized at the Regional Park. These funds can be transferred within the Parks Development
Fund. Without these additional funds, the $50,000 grant will only partially provide the goals
