El emblemático estadio Jorge "Mágico" González, en la Colonia Flor Blanca de San Salvador, que fue construido con motivo de los III Juegos Centroamericanos y del Caribe de 1935, podría cambiar el pasto natural de su cancha de fútbol por uno sintético. Esta es la intención del Instituto Nacional de los Deportes de El Salvador (Indes), que incluso ya publicó un aviso de licitación para elegir a la empresa que se encargará de construir el césped artificial en este histórico escenario deportivo.

Bajo la administración de la alcaldía tecleña, el escenario deportivo tendrá remodelaciones que incluyen engramillado artificial y ampliación de graderíos.
Una cancha con grama sintética y la ampliación de los graderíos son parte de las remodelaciones que tendrá el estadio Las Delicias, de Santa Tecla, en los próximos tres años.

Oddly enough, can't seem to find a picture out there of Juventud Independiente's stadium...but I'm sure ESFC or any other site will have a picture available soon enough since they are back in the 1st division.

Its a lot money to invest on a synthetic field but props to them for investing in infrastructure.

the 3rd pick is inaccurate here is another instead

 

I say we reach an agreement with EDESSA (owners of el Cusca) and raise funds that they (or even the gov.) could match to renovate el Cuscatlan. Salvi's from all over the world could deposit funds into a trust account. My dream is to see el Cusca transformed into a world class stadium. We the fans all over the world and the players deserve it.

 

I don't mind if they just renovate it a bit. Just by adding actual seats to the whole stadium, painting the stadium with the flags color, and HD video cameras so it comes out nice on TV. They don't need to make the stadium bigger it's fine the way it is by capacity.

 

I guess I can agree, any little improvement is good. But as a footballer nation with lots of support we are really behind when it comes to our main facility. From what I hear from my ppl here that have been to el Cusca it sounds really outdated.

I know a complete reno can be done. Edessa can be motivated and persuaded by the ppl once they see the funds raised and the sponsors we have will surely be a part; digicel, mitre, and also the naming rights to the stadium can help alot.

 

3 part story on the current first division stadiums

El Salvador FC is currently putting out a five part series on the first division stadiums. It is really well written and the most in depth I have ever read. They are currently on part 3 with the next two coming out the next two days

In the 4th part of El SalvadorFC's articles on stadiums Pohl pretty much summarizes everything wrong with our club football in one paragraph by letting everyone know club Presidents attitude especially his.

http://www.elsalvadorfc.com/2012-11-08-investigacion-canchas-voces-de-autoridades

That attitude has prevented not only stadiums from getting at least in semi decent shape but stopped clubs from implementing everything else that is considered basic in club football these days just about everywhere else. We easily have the worst club Presidents in any country were futbol is the number one sport

 

I'm surprised nobody has talked about this. What yall feel about FESFUT/Proyecto Azul i'm hoping this turns out to be a success. And they can improve the fields in our 1st division.

Same I hope its a massive succes our field has been a disgrace for several years...four different national team coaches have talked about the disgraceful state of our fields. I hope its the start of all the staduims being updated and brought into fifa standard

 

I'm thinking how much $$$$$$$ it's going to cost in order to fix all of this and i heard somebody said than you don't need to stop the league necessarily but i agree if we can get this over soon the better. Because i was shocked to say the least that only two stadiums passed Cuscatlan & Calero Suarez (Metapan) sad that everybody don't have the minimum standards by FIFA The day they put words into action and i start seeing changes the day i will applaud and say this is what we needed for a long time until than it's waiting to believe it.

 

Yeah but at the same time this is the first time that something like this has happened, I mean it usually coaches and journalist who have bringing up the awful states of our field. I think it needs a gradual process probably best to get the Santa Tecla field (which I really thought would have passed expectation) and Estadio Jorge Magico upgraded since they are the fields most other team will use once their home staduim being renovated, this should be followed by FAS and Aguila staduims and then the rest. Plus I thought Pasaquina had fixed their staduim to make it up to standard I guess it was to reach Primera division standard and not fifa standard.
