Pennsbury Falcon Field Stadium Project Entering Final Phase

FALLS TOWNSHIP, PA —The Pennsbury School District’s Falcon Field stadium is closer to completion.

The Falls Township Supervisors at its recent meeting approved a resolution related to sewer facilities for the long-awaited project.

Pennsbury School District’s engineer told supervisors that the recent approval of the township’s Act 537 Sewage Facilities Plan “sets the stage for the last phase of the stadium to be completed.”

Plans call for team rooms and restrooms to be completed at the stadium this summer, following an anticipated July delivery of pre-fabricated buildings. Officials expect the work to be completed in time for Pennsbury’s first home football game of 2024.

Other upgrades include an eight-lane synthetic track, an artificial turf field, and the installation of LED stadium lights.
