BMO Athletic Field
BMO Field is fashioned, somewhat after the field at St. Michael’s College in Toronto. A half size dome is erected during the winter to house indoor soccer, golf and other activities. The lit dome is fabricated out of canvas and is supported by an air blower that pressurizes the dome. The multi-purpose artificial turf field replaced the old natural turf field adjacent to the Aitken Centre.
In 2012 the Glenn Group working closely with UNB staff assisted in the design and tendering of the artificial field, dome and surrounding landscape elements. In addition, the firm was retained to prepare renderings for proposed elevated press box, bleacher advertising and entrance feature to assist with fundraising. These have since been constructed. In 2021, Glenn Group was asked to prepare a tender package for replacing the original turf installed in 2007 and to design additional site features such as a adjacent stairway.
