And they are doing so by making adjustments as they roll out the basic development master plan.The latest change is a decision to add a regulation lighted high school baseball field at the base of the Bradshaw Crossing bridge across the San Joaquin River. The goal is to have the field ready by fall and to match the amenity standard in terms of seating and such that you can find at the nearby Big League Dreams sports complex in Manteca.Next door to it is where Cambay Group plans to break ground soon for a six-field soccer complexRiver Islands has entered into a partnership with John Doyle who is the director of the coaching staff for the highly-regarded Mustang Soccer League that’s based in Danville and is known for their elite club play.Doyle’s storied playing history includes the Olympics, historic firsts for the United States in the World Cup, and a distinguished Major Soccer League career that included five years as the San Jose Earthquakes team captain as well as a stint as general manager.
