y�. 77 _ <br />f- <br />1 <br />sPaars <br />`. <br />AMATEUR SPORTS COMPLEX FEASIBILITY STUDY <br />GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA <br />CSL was engaged in 2016 by the Greenville -Pitt County Convention and Visitors Bureau to conduct a feasibility study <br />and strategically plan for potential development of a Sports Complex or otherwise enhancing the youth/ amateur <br />sports and sports tourism market in Greenville, North Carolina. <br />Our research process involved an extensive number of in-depth interviews with key project stakeholders including <br />representatives of local youth sports organizations, East Carolina University, City/County officials, tourism industry <br />representatives and other civic and business leaders. Additionally, we conducted extensive survey outreach of local <br />community members to better understand their need for and interest in supporting new/improved amateur sports <br />facilities in the Greenville community. Further, we conducted a detailed benchmarking analysis of competitive <br />and/or comparable area sports facilities and an extensive survey of potential user groups of new sports facilities in <br />the market. <br />The collective analysis and planning efforts resulted in a prioritized list of supportable development options for <br />amateur sports facility development in Greenville. Based on the areas of greatest community need and potential <br />opportunity to generate new tourism spending in the community we recommended three potential development <br />scenarios, including a 50-meter competition pool, indoor court space and/or a diamond field complex to <br />complement their existing inventory of youth/amateur sports spaces. <br />CSL International -Indoor Amateur Sports Facility Qualifications • Page 11 t:SL <br />
