<\/p>\nOnce all 12 fields are developed, Jacobs Entertainment expects 140 to 150 teams taking part every tournament weekend in downtown Reno, generating about $1,000 in spending per family \u2014 or $30 million to $35 million per year. It also projects $3 million to $5 million in tax revenue generated annually.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the number of fields and visiting teams grows, we anticipate demand for downtown hotel rooms to exceed 1,000 rooms per tournament night,\u201d Jacobs said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will provide opportunities for other downtown hotels to partner with us and help meet the needs of a new segment of Reno visitors.\u201d<\/p>\n
First soccer tournament has already been scheduled for 2026<\/h2>\n
Jacobs Entertainment plans to start by building four fields at a cost of $5 million.<\/p>\n
The fields will accommodate different types of play, including seven-on-seven, nine-on-nine and 11-on-11.<\/p>\n\nSo far, the developer has secured land for three of the first four proposed fields. All three fields are also on J Resort land:<\/p>\n
\n- West Second Street south of the J Resort Festival Grounds<\/li>\n
- Ralston at West Second Street<\/li>\n
- Washington just south of the railroad tracks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\u201cThe remaining six to eight fields envisioned will be larger and could collectively cost up to another $25 million,\u201d Richard Jacobs said.<\/p>\n
The company did not provide additional details on how it plans to acquire the remaining land required to fully build the project.<\/p>\n\nJacobs assured that parking will not be an issue during events, with the initial fields within walking distance to more than 2,000 parking spaces. He added that he was confident that downtown Reno can accommodate 25 to 30 youth sports weekends every year.<\/p>\n
Jacobs also did not rule out having members of the community use the fields.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are still exploring all options but our goal is to make it feasible for the fields to be available for rent when not in use for tournaments,\u201d Jacobs said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSeasons will typically be spring, summer, and fall (and) there may be some practice games in the winter months.\u201d<\/p>\n
Partners mentioned for the project include people associated with organizations and groups such as the Reno Apex Club, Great Basin Youth Soccer League, Reno Youth Sports Association and High Sierra Lacrosse.\u00a0<\/p>\n\nThe first traveling youth soccer weekend at the J Resort is already scheduled for June 5 and 6. More tournaments are expected to be held throughout the year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe anticipate up to 25% of participating teams will come from the Reno area,\u201d Jacobs said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
