With the continuing goal to provide a high-quality sports facility, In The Net, 798 Airport Road, Palmyra, has announced the installation of 87,000-square-foot of artificial turf on the remaining dirt infields. The fields will be ready for play in spring 2025.

According to Chad Weaver, president of HR Weaver Building Systems Inc., which owns the facility, construction will begin in early November and be completed by Tuesday, April 1, 2025, in time for the spring season.

Weaver explained that A-Turf RS Premier artificial turf system will be installed on Fields 2 through 6. The improvement from dirt to artificial turf fields may eliminate rainouts and cancellations in 95% of rain forecasts. In addition, four outdoor batting cages were added.

Weaver broke down the fields, which vary in uses. Fields 2 and 3 will have a grass infield appearance and the same layout as WellSpan Field 1. Fields 2 and 3 can accommodate 9U to 18U play. Field 4 will have a dirt infield appearance and can accommodate baseball and softball for 9U to 18U play. Fields 5 and 6 will have a dirt infield appearance and can accommodate 9U to 12U baseball, as well as softball for people of all ages.

In 2025, the facility will host more than 1,000 teams that will play more than 1,800 games and take part in 300 practices. There will also be a weekday league play option offered in 2025.
