The Pajaro Valley High School (PVHS) Playfields are not just an essential upgrade but a celebration of PVHS’s school spirit and a solid foundation of what this school campus represents: perseverance. The new eight-acre facility overlooks the surrounding wetlands and farms and features a synthetic turf football and soccer field, an eight-lane track, two softball fields and bleachers to accommodate 2,200 spectators. The facility is two-tiered, the upper level containing a ticket booth, concessions and restroom buildings situated in a small plaza.

Miyamoto collaborated in the design of several structures in the facility, including a concessions building, a restroom building, ticketing and scorekeeper’s booths, and a large storage building, along with the home and visitors dugouts for the fields. The design utilizes CMU walls for the buildings, ensuring durability and sustainability. In addition, the buildings are topped with exposed roof framing using stout 3x rafters.
