Power Cross Ministries celebrated it’s 15-year anniversary just following the ground-breaking on their Tempo Turf Artificial Turf Football Field, by UDC Sports.
Serving over 300 families in Statesville and Salisbury, North Carolina, an all-weather playing surface for Power Cross’s youth football program had been the dream of Founders Jeff and Natalie Storment since 2007.
A 75,000 square foot rubber/sand infilled artificial turf field was designed and constructed by UDC Sports, along with several site amenities.
Clearing the site began in September of 2021, with 0.75 acres of hardwoods removed, and bulk grading of over 20,000 cubic yards of native soil.
Tempo Turf LS-42225 Infilled artificial turf system with ReFill crumb rubber/sand infill was installed with End-Zone lettering, Center logo, Sideline Logos, and inlayed markings conforming to NFHS and NCHSAA standards.
Project completed early April 2022.

The design experts at UDC Sports chose a next generation infilled artificial turf system utilizing Tempo Turf LS-42225 and ReFill (crumb rubber/sand infill) to create this 75,000 square foot football field.
Field Amenities
A 180-foot long retaining wall was designed and constructed off the SE corner of the field, goal posts were installed, the access ramp was covered in Tempo Turf LT-60125 artificial landscape turf, trees and shrubs were planted on the perimeter of the property, and a concrete sidewalk was installed for access to the top of the Southern slope on the Home side of the field.
“God built an awesome football field.
Last night, we were blessed to share His goodness with the young men of PC and our community.
It was PURE JOY to see the young men of Power Cross run onto their football field for the first time!”
