Scoreboard and Concessions Update

25 Second Playclocks
The Base for the New Scoreboard
New Concession Stand
Though the season is still over a month away, construction at Jaycee Stadium on several TD club projects are going forward on schedule and will be completed in the coming weeks and in time for kickoff against Bradwell Institute in the scrimmage game on August 17th.

The most noticeable additions are the base for the new scoreboard which will be one of the nicest in the area.  The scoreboard itself should be installed in the next couple of weeks.  It will feature a video screen allowing for live video feeds from the field to be played during the game.

Not lost on many is the need for expanded concessions and bathrooms.  The new concession stand and bathrooms will be located on the soccer field end of the home stands  This should help to speed up your concession stand trips and avoid those long halftime lines.

Two less noticeable changes are also in the works.  New, modern football goalposts have been installed on the field replacing the old style which had been at Jaycee Stadium for many years.  Also new will be 25 second playclocks on the field.  There will be one in each end zone on field level.  Not many high schools in Georgia have these and they, along with the other improvements, will give Jaycee Stadium more of a college stadium feel on Friday nights. 

Keep checking back for progress updates on the stadium construction.
