The Estonian Football Association (EJL) and the Laagri Education and Sports Centre have reached an agreement to replace the artificial turf at Laagri Stadium, with the upgrade set to take place during the summer of 2025.

“_This renovation will address the biggest concern among A. Le Coq Premium Liiga match pitches_,” said **Tõnu Sirel**, infrastructure advisor at the EJL. “_We’re pleased to have brought forward a project originally scheduled for 2027 by two years through effective cooperation with the local municipality. We extend our thanks to Saue Municipal Government, Saue JK, Mayor Andres Laisk, Sports Committee Chair Valdis Toomast, and the Laagri Education and Sports Centre for their prompt and constructive collaboration._”

Laagri Stadium serves as the home ground for top-flight club [Harju JK Laagri](https://balticfootballnews.com/harju/ "Harju JK Laagri") and also hosts local Saue JK.

The Laagri upgrade is part of a wider effort to improve football infrastructure across Estonia in 2025. This year, the turf at Fama Stadium in Narva [has already been replaced](https://balticfootballnews.com/narvas-kalev-fama-stadiums-new-artificial-turf-to-be-installed-in-may-two-games-relocated/ "Narva’s Kalev-Fama stadium’s new artificial turf to be installed in May; two games relocated"), construction of a football hall is underway in Rakvere, and preparations have begun for a new hall on Punase Street in Tallinn.

“_Each of these projects marks an important step forward_,” Sirel added. “_We continue to work closely with clubs, local authorities, and the national government to improve conditions for everyone involved in Estonian football_.”
