Starting in mid-July, four major events at Grand Park Sports Complex made for the facility’s busiest baseball and softball week yet.
The first event, the LIDS Grand Park Invite, featured 80 teams, ages 14U, 16U and 18U. The second event, Grand Park Nations, drew 120 teams ages 7U to 13U.
After those events and into the week, Monon Trail Elementary hosted 40 teams for the NSA ‘B’ World Series.
On July 23, Grand Park hosted the Baseball Youth National Championships, featuring 130 teams ages 7U to 14U from across the nation.
“After an already packed first half of the tournament season, it (was) exciting to (enter) Grand Park’s busiest baseball/softball week to date,” said Westfield Mayor Andy Cook. “These large-scale tournament events are what drive the economic impact of Grand Park.”
