Rocket Boster Fields Case Study

Lower maintenance costs. There's no need to mow synthetic turf, which in the growing season, can be as often as 2 to 3 times a week. This saves on fuel and labor costs.

Disparity in the quality of facilities for boys’ and girls’ teams. The OCR found that the softball field is below the quality of the baseball field.

Some people might say that building an indoor baseball, softball, and football field is a waste of money and it would be too expensive. Each day people would have to pay a certain amount of money per hour they are there, or they could get a membership. If there are tournaments, the teams have to pay to enter them. Also Eldred could have fundraisers to earn money for the fields.

The sports with the largest amount of revenue are basketball and football. Athletes that play these sports should be paid more than athletes that play sports that do not earn as much money for the school. Many of the top colleges put a lot of money towards their team sports. For example, TCF Bank Stadium costed $330 million to build. What causes stadiums to be so expensive is the artificial fields, extremely large scoreboards, large seating requirements, and lighting up the field.

In addition to increased safety and school pride provided by a custom 360 indoor football surface, our Syngrass field will save your school money over the long

The other popular belief that I have read is that it helps curb costs so that owners don’t have to spend as much out of their own pockets. Which would make sense however the sports franchises in themselves are investments that cost hundreds of millions to even multiple billions of dollars. So the idea they would need to pinch pennies once the initial investment is made doesn’t add up or sit well with the fans who find their rooting interests at the bottom end of the financial

One of the main reasons I believe we should fix our fields is that it would attract more sports teams. Sports teams need a practice field and it usually ends up being a public school’s athletic field. If the school was to improve our fields, it would in turn attract more teams. Attracting more teams would mean that there would be more competition to play on our fields. Having lots of competition to play on the school’s fields would eventually lead to them paying extra money to be able to practice on them. Renovating the sports fields will then make the school much more money. Although it might cost a lot of money to improve the fields, in the long run

If I were in charge I wouldn’t spend millions on a new stadium, I would put the money to useful things around the city. The old stadium isn’t that old, everything

Football and basketball bring in the dough, and every other college sport survives as a result” (Text 4). Either way, the athletic departments would still have to use the money to clean and prepare the stadium, buy the gear needed along with buying the food and merchandise imperative during the game, making it almost impractical to pay the

When I was an elementary school kid I would wake up early every morning before school grab my bowl of cheerios and curl up in my moms’ felt cheetah print chair and turn on the television to watch my favorite show, Rocket Power. The characters of the Nickelodeon show that aired during the early 2000s had the most awesome life! Otto and Reggie Rocket and their friends Twister and Squid lived right next to the beach as well as a pier that almost identically resembled the Santa Monica pier with the Ferris-wheel and the roller coasters. Not only did they live in a great location, but they were also insanely good action sports athletes as well! Once the kids finished surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, roller-skating, mountain biking, or playing roller hockey, they trekked to the top of the pier to the Shore Shack, which was owned by Ray Rocket, Otto and Reggie’s’ dad, for some tasty burgers. How could you not be jealous of the Rocket Power squad? This show was insanely relatable to me at the time that I was watching it because all I did was hang out with my friends after school and play sports with them. It was almost like watching a show about my own crew. I, however, may not have realized at the age that I was watching this show, how much of an impact it would truly have on my entire life!

Subject: Proposal to research total cost of turf field and the benefits of turf field to the college soccer team.

There are many intangible benefits to constructing a new stadium or arena for a city. First and foremost, it creates a sense of identity within the

   Abstract:  The Stadium  construction boom continues, and taxpayers are being forced to pay for new high tech stadiums they don’t want.  These new stadiums create only part-time jobs.  Stadiums bring money in exclusively for professional leagues and not the communities.  The teams are turning public money into private profit.  Professional leagues are becoming extremely wealthy at the taxpayers expense.  The publicly-funded stadium obsession must be put to a stop before athletes and coaches become even greedier.  New stadiums being built hurt public schools, and send a message to children that leisure activities are more important than basic education.  Public money

A branch within public facilities, public parks and recreation, attract 140 americans per year, collecting 646 billion dollars and 6.1 million jobs. However, in 2011, these facilities received 18.5 billion dollars less than needed, contributing towards the maintenance backlog that is estimated to cost 11 billion dollars (American Infrastructure Report Card). Schools, the other half of the public facilities examined in the 2013 Society of Civil Engineers report, remain neglected. The funding towards these schools continue to shrink. Although the current 10 billion dollars invested in school construction each year seems to embody a larger figure, it will cost 270 billion dollars to fully modernize and maintain our school facilities nationally (American Infrastructure Report Card). Due to the failing school and recreation systems, the Society gave the Public Facility category a

Unfortunately, these arguments contain bad economic reasoning that leads to overstatement of the benefits of stadiums. Economic growth takes place when a community's resources--people, capital investments, and natural resources like land--become more productive. Increased productivity can arise in two ways: from economically beneficial specialization by the community for the purpose of trading with other regions or from local value added that is higher than other uses of local workers, land, and investments. Building a stadium is good for the local economy only if a stadium is the most productive way to make capital investments and use its workers.
