Kentucky high school has miniature football field for kids behind end zone
Somerset (Ky.) High School installed a new field turf for its football stadium in recent years, and it came with an extra perk.
Behind one end zone, the Briar Jumpers installed a miniature football field available for kids to play on during varsity games. The mini-field stretches 30 yards in length and runs perpendicular to the full-size field.
