Pepsi Soccer Complex
5655 Sweet Bay Lane
Hickory, NC 28602

Parking at the Pepsi soccer complex can be quite tight. We encourage you to car pool to the complex as much as physically possible.
This tournament we will have some additional parking available just in front of field 9.

Please do not park on the hill on the way into the park. Cars that are parked there can be towed.

NEIL CLARK
3404 6th Street Dr NW, Hickory, NC 28601

There is parking available on the top field and on the two lower fields.

In addition, parking is available at Hickory Christian Academy.

there is a concrete sidewalk through the woods that people could take to avoid walking down the road.  It would especially be convenient for those playing on the lower fields.  Just go behind the main school building, past the dumpsters and up the hill to the soccer fields.  

Keep in mind, there is significant construction going on with the building next to the turf field.  There will be some type of construction barrier there. Please stay out of that area. 

Please do not park on the grass lot across the street. Cars that do will be towed.
