McClintock joins several other schools in the Tempe Union High School District who have made the swap to an artificial turf field, including Ahwatukee schools Mountain Point and Desert Vista, and cross-town rival Tempe High.
McClintock fans will get to see the field in action at the first varsity home football game of the 2021-2022 season on Sept. 3, 2021 at 7 p.m. where the Chargers will face the Saguaro Sabercats. An official field dedication ceremony will take place on Oct. 1, 2021, when the Chargers face Scottsdale’s Desert Mountain Wolves.
