In the span of six years, Fields & Futures has completed renovations on 22 athletic fields across the Oklahoma City Public Schools (OKCPS) school district.

While our donors and community supporters help make our mission attainable, it’s Tommy Noble and Cimarron Construction that bring it to life.

Up until this summer, Noble has overseen the construction of three to four fields a year. With the school district’s Pathway to Greatness plan in place, Fields & Futures is responsible for building eight fields simultaneously.

That means Tommy Noble is overseeing the construction of eight new fields at the same time.

But for a guy who knows the impact sports can have on a young person’s life, it’s all in a day’s work.

Keeping Girls in the Game: Supporting Female Student-Athletes Matters More Than Ever

Every spring, OKCPS sports fields and tracks buzz with the energy and promise of a new season. Yet behind this excitement lies a troubling trend: sports participation among female students drops by 8% as they transition to high school, while boys' participation jumps to 35%. Find out why keeping girls in the game when they're at their most vulnerable is one of our biggest priorities and what we're doing to put more girls on more teams.

Swinging Into Spring Sports

Spring sports are in full swing in Oklahoma City Public Schools, and it's the busiest sports season of the year. 4,176 OKCPS students played sports last spring, and that number is certain to be even higher this year. This spring, Fields & Futures programs will support coaches and athletes participating in track & field, golf, soccer, and cheer through OKCPS, the YMCA, and OKC PAL.
