Sportspark


Sportspark is a large 60 acre facility in Tucson, Arizona that features six lighted softball/baseball fields, four sand volleyball courts along with a multipurpose field. The park has reopened under new management of Championships' Sports, LLC and is now known as Mike Jacob Sports Park.

Visitors to the park can participate in one of the many different leagues at the park which include softball, baseball, Frisbee and Volleyball. There are youth sports leagues for children to participate in or visitors can watch many of the other games that are played at the park.

There is also a children's playground at the park which will keep smaller visitors occupied for hours. When visitors find they are hungry they can grab a snack from one of the two concession buildings.

The batting cages were removed at the park as part of the new ownership. These have been replaced with a wiffleball stadium which will showcase the iconic 'The Green Monster', from Fenway Park which is home to the Boston Red Sox's. The Green Monster is 30 feet long and stands 12 feet high.

Visitors have to try and hit the green monster from the home plate which is approximately 45 feet away. This may seem easy but the ball will be pitched at almost 95mph and a wiffleball rarely goes straight. There is no running of bases required in this game and a maximum of five players are required.

The park is somewhere that will cater for all visitors and hopefully they will have an enjoyable day at the park.
