While much of the attention was focused on the field for the first ever NFL event held at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London during the NFL Academy trials, those in attendance could not helped but be impressed by the new facilities surrounding them.
With the stadium set to the same configuration that fans will note when the league hosts their first ever game there in October, it was clear for all to see that the venue had been created with the NFL very much in mind. Designed by well known global architectural firm Populous, a company previously known as HOK sports and the designer of several other stadiums around the league such a Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, New Era Field in Buffalo and State Farm Stadium in Arizona among others, this latest project rivals them rivals them all.
