Soccer Field for Westbury High School 

 

A  soccer field was part of the 2012 bond improvements for Westbury High School.  The tennis courts were built on one portion of the open rectangle and the other half was slated to be a soccer field. However, the contractor left the field littered with concrete and rebar making the land unusable as a soccer pitch.   Fast forward seven years, Bill Burhans after many (7) years of lobbying finally found the contractor who agreed to clear the field. This happened in 2024 right before our 2024 gala.  We appreciate not only Bill’s efforts, but the contractor for doing the right thing once the request made it to the correct person! 

​

The adjacent tennis courts built as part of the bond are beautiful. The boy’s baseball field and the girl’s softball field both built with funds from that bond are beautiful.  We’ wanted to give soccer the same.  At our 2024 gala we made a plea for funds for phase 2 which was to level the field and sod it.  Thanks to many generous donors phase 2 was completed and soccer goals as well as spectator stands were purchased. Thank you  to everyone who helped bring a proper soccer field to Westbury.
