However, the Glasgow sports complex is showing its age in the forty-plus years since construction. The football field has many dips in it, and the ground has become extremely hard. It's nearly impossible to mark a straight line across the field.
The track has surpassed expectations in its use but has dozens of cracks, and a severe dip in the first lane on the home stretch. Many coaches and volunteers have contributed hours trying to "patch" the facility, but the time has come when "band-aid" solutions will not work.
Thus, Scottie Field Recharged was born! A committee has been formed to forge ahead with the monumental task of upgrading, or "Recharging" the outdoor athletic complex.
