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.
