Sports Community and Stakeholder Engagement
6
Local stakeholders appreciate the quality of the facilities planned, the synergies offered in terms of the
quantity of fields in a single location and would like to have some assured allocation of field hours.
Local stakeholders generally recognize the need for an individualized operating structure, operating
policies and rates to maintain quality standards and keep it financially sustainable.
Based on the levels of quality and service offered, some stakeholders believe that the current pricing
structure at GPSC is lower than what they experience at other regional facilities, especially with respect to
soccer, but some youth groups still question their ability to afford and fees.
Adult sports representatives understand the primary focus on youth sports, but would like to have some
dedicated/scheduled use of GPSC fields, allowing them to provide consistent programing and are
willing/able to afford field rental rates.
The project has generated strong interest from a variety of regional and national tournament/event
sponsors given its convenient access and location proximate to a variety of attractions and destinations.

Regional and National Best Practices
8
A significant number of mega-sports complex projects are either being planned or constructed nationally.
Virtually all of the projects now operating and those being planned, are part of focused economic
development driven strategies.
In most instances the projects are focused on driving tourism related income and discount the real cost of
providing sports related facilities and services.
In most cases, the overriding objective is to create an operating model that orchestrates the level/type of
play, with the long-term viability of the field assets, in a sustainable manner that balances cost recovery
and economic development goals.
Smaller projects with limited if any non-field related infrastructure and projects that have successful
sponsorship programs are getting close to full cost recovery, but most sports complex projects are
recovering between 50 and 75 percent of their annual operating costs.
Aside from those municipalities who have entered into long-term land lease agreements, municipal self-
operation of sports complex projects using a variety of functional and service outsourcing is common.
