The City of Sioux Falls has secured an offer of space for badly needed expansion of its South Dakota Junior Football program.

The land, located in western Sioux Falls north of Benson Road, could be used for a total of 14 fields, with eight being constructed in the first phase of development. The City currently uses land at Riverdale Park for junior football, which has outgrown the three fields available there.

The new land, a total of 50 acres, is proposed to be donated by Sanford Health as part of a new youth athletic complex.
