Short Description: Upgrading Hoyt Basketball outdoor court – new flooring, pro basketball hoops (adjustable & single rimmed), coaching equipment & fresh paint.
Long Description:
Cambridge is a city of basketball. Many people in the city have grown up on the courts, playing during their free time or in leagues. However, due to high usage, many of the basketball courts need upgrades, including the basketball courts at Hoyt Field. This court is instrumental to the lives of many young Cantabrigians, who during the summer months play in leagues. For this project, we would like to upgrade the court’s flooring, install adjustable basketball hoops, include seating as well as integrate equipment that would improve the ability to coach games. Having these upgrades will allow for more people to use and access the courts.
