Talladega College will unveil its new multi-purpose field during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday, November 5th at 1 PM. The ceremony will include live music from the college’s band, an intramural football game, and short remarks from City officials.
“The wait is over,” said Dr. Lisa Long, Acting President of Talladega College. “Our goals are to promote continuous improvements on the institutional level, and to cultivate a dynamic and supportive student environment.”
The multi-purpose field will be utilized as a venue for band practice, soccer practice and matches, diverse student events, youth soccer, and other activities.
The college broke ground on the field in May of 2021. The Talladega Board of Trustees voted to conduct a feasibility study to determine if the college should reintroduce its football program, which has been inactive for 80 years. The study will conclude in January of 2022.
