CPS cuts the ribbon on Eckersall Stadium and Athletic Fields, a premier athletic facility which will serve area schools and the Special Olympics. The sodded athletic facility was transformed to include a football and soccer field with high-performance synthetic turf, and a track and field to support running, discus, high jump, long jump, pole vault and shot put. The improved facility also now includes a new press box and scoreboard, new drinking fountains and a sodded lawn with drainage infrastructure. While Eckersall Stadium and Athletic Fields will serve all surrounding neighborhoods, South Shore, Washington, CVS, Bowen, UIC Woodlawn, Caldwell, Black, Warren and Coles will utilize the facilities regularly for school programming.
