Sam Sirianni Field at at Edison Stadium will have a new look for the 2023 high school football season.
The Miami Dolphins and the National Football League Foundation Grassroots program are donating $250,000 toward the installation of a new synthetic turf at the home of the Fort Myers High School football program. The current condition of the field is such that it can’t be used for practice, only games.
“It is important to the Miami Dolphins that student-athletes have safe places to play and we look forward to this grant encouraging those efforts,” said Miami Dolphins Senior Director of Community Relations & Youth Programs RaShauna Hamilton.
The NFL Foundation Grassroots Program has supported the construction or renovation of 416 football fields nationwide since 1998.
