(KTXL) — Roseville city officials will break ground on a new sports complex on Thursday.
Elected officials, community leaders, project stakeholders, and sports enthusiasts will gather at the groundbreaking at 10 a.m. Thursday, according to a press release.
The Roseville Soccer Complex will have 10 artificial fields across 51 acres and will also include a universally accessible playground. The complex will be located at 2600 Westbrook Boulevard off of Westbrook Drive and Blue Oaks Boulevard in Roseville
