Don't know if this in anyway related....but I have a friend whose son (14ish) has played PG tournaments in Birmingham all fall. Before posting I went and looked up facilities and see that Bham (Hoover) has upped the ante on whats available. There are also several highschools within 10 miles of this facility. (PLUS traffic would be a whole lot less of a hassle!). This is where the SEC baseball tournament is played.
BASEBALL FIELDS
OPENING AUGUST 2018, The Hoover Met Complex’s state-of-art outdoor baseball complex features:
- Five (5) NCAA regulation-size baseball/softball fields:
- Four (4) artificial turf fields
- One (1) natural grass field
Each field is equipped with a scoreboard and LED field lighting, including 50-foot infield candles and 30-foot outfield candles.
For younger players, the four turf fields can be broken up at the corners, transforming them into eight regulation youth-size fields. Our facilities will also include ten (10) batting cages for athletes and coaches to reserve.
