FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) – Snider football will soon have its very own home football stadium after a plan passed at the FWCS school board meeting on Monday, June 24.
The plan passed unanimously by the board as part of a 55-million-dollar expansion that also includes improvements at Brown natatorium at South Side, and money for new scoreboards, sports equipment, and uniforms.
The stadium itself will cost $30 million and seat 4,000.
It will include a building for concession stands and restrooms on land now occupied by tennis courts, which will be moved across the road to Lane Middle School. The stadium will be home to Snider football, soccer, track, and marching band and will have a turf field.
The stadium could be ready in the fall of 2026 with the approval.
