Renovations at Campo Patalino continue to advance rapidly, with the change to natural grass as one of the main and most anticipated improvements. This modernization project aims to transform the field and offer playing conditions that meet the expectations of both the senior team and the fans.
Improvements Focused on the Senior Team
The main objective of implementing the natural grass is to improve the sports practice of the O Elvas senior team, providing a playing surface that favors the athletes’ performance. Natural grass, in addition to being more aesthetically pleasing, offers a more authentic and less aggressive gaming experience to players’ joints, reducing the risk of injuries and encouraging more fluid performance during matches.
To ensure that the senior team’s calendar is impacted as little as possible, works are being carried out in stages. The first stage, which consisted of removing the old synthetic lawn, is currently underway, and the next few days will be dedicated to preparing the land to receive the natural lawn. This process includes the installation of modern drainage and irrigation systems, essential for maintaining the quality of the field throughout the different seasons.
Work Schedule and Return Home
Those responsible for the work are committed to ensuring that the senior team can return to Campo Patalino before the start of the second round of the championship. The deadline is being strictly followed, with the different phases of the project progressing quickly and efficiently. The expectation is that the Blue and Gold Knights will be able to play home games on the new pitch, providing not only better playing conditions, but also a superior experience for fans eagerly awaiting their return to the mythical field.
The return to the renovated stadium will be a milestone for the season and an additional motivation for the players, who will have the opportunity to play in a modernized environment, with a state-of-the-art pitch, with the support of their fans.
A New Era for Patalino Stadium
This “Day 2” symbolizes the beginning of a new era for Campo Patalino. Switching to a natural lawn goes beyond simply technically replacing a surface; represents a transformation in the way football will be played. The new pitch will not only bring a higher quality of play for the athletes, but also a more pleasant and competitive field, suited to the demands of contemporary football.
O Elvas fans will be able to watch the matches on a renovated pitch, which will offer a more immersive experience both on and off the pitch. The modernization of the stadium takes local football to a new level, allowing Campo Patalino to continue to be the stage for great sporting moments.
With the continuation of works and the commitment to deliver a field that meets expectations, the future of sport in Elvas is promising. Campo Patalino is being prepared to accommodate the challenges of increasingly demanding football, while maintaining its relevance as the heart of sport in the city.
In short, this remodeling project reflects the commitment of SAD and its directors to offering excellent conditions for the development of local football, raising the level of competitions and creating a legacy that will benefit future generations of athletes and fans.
