MULT-PURPOSE SPORTS FIELD - FULLERTON COLLEGE
HAL SHERBECK FIELD
Fullerton College was ready to upgrade its Hal Sherbeck Field. They needed funding options that fit their budget and timeline. Through KYA they were able to utilize the CollegeBuys cooperative contract no. CB3570. CollegeBuys is powered by the Foundation for California Community Colleges and offers discounts on a wide range of products including sports facilities. KYA teamed up with Shaw Sports Turf to provide an elite turf surface for Fullerton College Athletics. This project aimed to equip the student-athletes with a high performing, safe field that gives them a competitive advantage over their competition. KYA installed a fantastic multicolored custom field. We started with alternating dark and light grey panels in 5- yard increments to create a backdrop for the bright yellow and blue midfield Hornets logo. We finished the area with the school colors, a bold blue for the end zones and sidelines with white lettering outlined in yellow. We ran into a roadblock when discovering the specific PMS blue color is patent by another college. KYA's tenacious team pushed to get authorization so Fullerton College could have the exact color needed to bring its field to life. Fullerton College and KYA are committed to partnerships fostering excellence and innovation. The new synthetic turf surface is one of its kind. We look forward to cheering on the Hornets for years to come!
