New sports complex to be built in Kingsburg, city leaders say

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Sports travel leagues will soon have a new facility where they can play ball.

The City of Kingsburg announced plans on Thursday for a new regional sports complex.

The project is part of a public and private partnership with the Safarjian Family Foundation.

The estimated $42 million complex will be located on 40 acres at the southeast corner of Stroud and Madsen Avenues, in Kingsburg's eastern section.

The plans include four softball fields, four soccer fields, a gymnasium, a visitor center and classrooms primarily for health education.

Funding will come from several sources, including $25,000 each from the Kingsburg Girls Softball League and the Kingsburg Youth Soccer League.
