Inter Miami proposes turning the existing Lockhart stadium into a training facility and complex

Inter Miami on Jan. 28 unveiled plans for a new training facility, complex and stadium in Fort Lauderdale at the site of Lockhart Stadium.

The team said in a release that “the training facilities will serve as the training grounds for Inter Miami’s MLS team and will serve as the home to both its youth academy and anticipated USL team. The training site will feature several regulation soccer fields and a training complex with state-of-the-art amenities.”

Paul McDonough, Inter Miami’s sporting director, stated: “The vast history of soccer in South Florida has deep roots in Fort Lauderdale dating back to the original Strikers of the 70’s and 80’s, the Miami Fusion of the 90’s and early 2000’s as well as the recent clubs that have called Lockhart Stadium their home.”

“It is a privilege to be able to present a sustainable proposal that honors that history and revitalizes the area. Our training facility will serve all of South Florida’s soccer community and provide amateur and professional athletes the opportunity to achieve their goals both on and off the field,” McDonough added.
