Lloyd Sports + Engineers is attending the 2026 Arizona Interscholastic Athletic Administration Association (AIAAA) conference in Prescott, Arizona this weekend! Lloyd team members Patrick Beazley and Grayson Allen will be attending. We are looking forward to hearing from everyone at the conference. We hope to see you there!  Lloyd Sports + Engineering is proud to have worked alongside Chandler Unified School District to transform athletic fields across Chandler’s high schools with new synthetic turf. Arizona College Prep High School was the final school in the district to complete the transformation, bringing a new synthetic turf field to their athletic program. The field will support both football and soccer, providing a durable, versatile surface for practices, games, and competition. It has been exciting to see this district-wide vision come together, creating improved athletic spaces for students and athletes across Chandler. Congratulations to Arizona College Prep on their new field & thanks to CUSD for trusting us with their vision! Lloyd team members, Abby Schmidt and Patrick Beazley, attended the 76th annual Arizona Parks & Recreation Association Conference & Expo in Phoenix, AZ this week! We always enjoy connecting with the parks and recreation community, catching up with familiar faces, and meeting new ones. Thank you to all who stopped by our booth and we look forward to seeing you at the next one! Please join us in welcoming our newest team member, Grayson Allen! 🎉 Grayson is a Civil Designer and brings a blend of on-site experience and land development expertise from projects all over the western United States. His well-rounded background allows him to design for constructability and practicality. He’s joining the team with the goal of bringing a seamless transition from concepts on plans to community infrastructure. 👷♂️ Originally from Golden, Colorado, Grayson graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. After working in Montana post undergrad, he has traded the mountains for the Arizona sunshine! ☀️🌵 He is passionate about all things sports and loves spending time outside when the AZ weather allows it. As he has grown up surrounded by athletics, working in a space that allows for the combining of engineering and sports has always been a dream of his. We're excited to have you on the team, Grayson. Welcome to Lloyd! 👏  Last week was National Intern Day, and with Justin Sullivan recently joining our team, it felt like the perfect moment to share a bit more about his journey to Lloyd from the man himself. 📐📝 "Working for Lloyd has provided me with a different perspective on sports field design compared to my job during the school year as the Student Lead for The University of Alabama Athletic Grounds Crew. While my work at Alabama centers on maintaining championship-quality playing surfaces, my experience with Lloyd has deepened my understanding of the planning, engineering, and design decisions that make those high-quality fields possible. My background at Alabama has been especially valuable in this role because it has given me firsthand insight into both the strengths and limitations of different sports field designs. It has also provided me with a thorough understanding of what athletes, coaches, administrators, and grounds crews expect from their playing surfaces. Combining these experiences has allowed me to better appreciate how thoughtful design directly impacts field performance, long-term maintenance, and the overall experience for everyone who uses the facility." Great work, Justin! We're glad to have you. 🎉 |
