Tim Stuckey, who coaches for
the Lincoln Futbol Club, talked about how the fields came to be. He said
that when the city and the Futbol Club reached an agreement on
leasing the property, there was a great deal of work to be done.
He said at first it was almost
a one-man operation as Dru Hauter came out and worked the ground and
got it all seeded. But, Stuckey said it didn't stay that way,
because the parents of the Lincoln team members are 100 percent
behind the club and all give their time to the project now.
Parents are involved with
upkeep of the grounds, such as mowing; they work to get nets up in
goals each year; and they pitch in to run small concessions at each
field. Pictured below in

in red. The team is coached by Robert Bailey.
