DYERSBURG hosted an informative meeting presenting potential
improvements to be made to J.C. Sawyers Stadium.
The
proposed stadium improvements would include a series of
renovations totaling an estimated $2.2 million dollars.
These renovations would allow
Dyersburg
to potentially host a National Association of
Intercollegiate Athletics game, said Dyersburg High School
Coach James Counce. This type of event would generate
revenue for our local and regional economy.
For
the last 12 years Savannah, TN hosted the NAIA championship
game – this game generated an overall estimated $2 million
in revenue for Hardin County.
Team
Dyersburg – a group organized in collaboration with the DHS
Quarterback Club, has submitted an application to host a
pre-season NAIA game in 2010 if the improvements proposal is
approved by the City of Dyersburg these renovations will
completed by this time.
