Exceptional coaching staff. Top of the line facility. Hoping to be a part of their organization again this season.

Report
Pitchers mound aweful. A kid could easily hurt an ankle or knee with its poor dynamics. Lighting is misdirected for safety of outfielders. The trees get mood lights instead. Gravel instead if concrete or pavement for spectators and players to walk on. Terrible visibility for spectators. The backfield. Is it up to code for competition? An extension cord on the ground by spectators?? No scoreboard? Looks like the man or his family started a beautiful ball field and ran out of money. Hmmm Collierville??
