Field Feature Friday: Mount Dora

The rain hasn’t stopped the Mount Dora Bulldogs from debuting their new synthetic turf field.

The turf for Tom Jett Field was one of the final pieces in finishing the Bulldog’s new stadium.  Chronic rain has been an issue for the school’s last football field, so the new artificial grass system will ensure that the team has a safe surface to play on.  The all-weather turf includes a new drainage system that will allow players to get back on the field quicker after rain and play more hours each week.   Mount Dora Christian Academy is also the only school in the Lake County area to have a stadium that features artificial turf.

The grand opening of the new athletic facility took place last Friday, August 25th on the Bulldog’s first game of the season.  The team took home a win over Legacy charter with a final score of 35-19.  Tonight the Bulldog’s will be hosting another home game, facing off against Bayshore Christian at 7 PM.

Good luck to the Bulldogs tonight, hope you pull another win!
