Premium Design Solutions for Unique Athletics Needs
The Thrasher Group partnered with Roane County Schools to deliver a transformative upgrade to the high school’s football field. The original natural grass surface had been serviceable for many years, but it no longer met the demands of modern athletic performance and maintenance efficiency.
Thrasher has a multidisciplinary team of sports and recreation facility designers, civil engineers, and landscape architects who collaborated to design and implement a state-of-the-art artificial turf system tailored to the school’s needs. The new synthetic turf enhances field durability, reduces long-term maintenance costs, and provides a consistent, high-performance playing surface for student-athletes across all seasons.
Working in close coordination with FieldTurf, a global leader in artificial turf technology, the team at Thrasher finalized a layout that meets rigorous safety and performance standards. The result is a resilient, weather-resistant field that supports year-round use and elevates the athletic experience for players, coaches, and fans alike.
This project reflects Thrasher’s commitment to delivering innovative, community-focused infrastructure solutions that improve quality of life and support long-term growth for educational institutions.
A More Comprehensive Project Team
The Roane County Schools football field renovation was more than a turf installation—it was a full-scale site development project led by Thrasher’s experienced architecture and engineering team. In addition to designing a high-performance artificial turf system, Thrasher developed precise grading plans to ensure optimal field drainage and long-term structural integrity. Strategic areas were designated for excess material, minimizing environmental impact and improving construction efficiency.
Our team also managed the permitting process for grading and stormwater drainage, ensuring full compliance with local and state regulations. This proactive approach helped streamline approvals, reduce risk, and keep the project on schedule.
Projects like this are about providing student-athletes with a safe, modern, and professional-grade athletic facility.
Thrasher’s attention to detail and integrated project delivery model ensured a smooth construction process and a lasting upgrade for the community.
