Rapid City, SD, November 11, 2026 —

Rapid City officials have revealed conceptual designs for a new multi-use community sports complex, which will be named the Sanford Health Sportsplex. The proposed facility is slated to be constructed on a 22-acre site that has been donated for the project. The land was provided by Pete Lien & Sons, a local entity.

The development timeline indicates that groundbreaking is anticipated in early 2027. Following the construction phase, the complex is planned to open its doors to the public in early 2029. This project aims to enhance recreational opportunities within the community.

Conceptual plans for the Sanford Health Sportsplex include a variety of amenities designed to serve diverse athletic and recreational interests. The facility is expected to feature:

  • Multiple sports courts, suitable for various indoor sports.
  • An indoor turf area, potentially for soccer, lacrosse, or other field sports.
  • A dedicated walking track for exercise and leisure.
  • A family play area, offering recreational space for younger residents and families.

A key element of this initiative is the partnership with Sanford Health, which is supporting the development of the sportsplex. The scope and specific financial contributions of this partnership were not detailed in the provided information. The name of the facility reflects this significant collaboration.

Further details regarding specific construction phases, project costs, and operational plans are expected as the conceptual designs move toward more concrete development stages. The exact capacity and specific dimensions of the courts and turf area are also part of the ongoing design process. The donor’s contribution of the 22-acre site represents a foundational step for the project.
