Quick facts

- It has hosted the Dixie Youth Baseball 8U World Series, which brought 22 teams from 12 states across the Southeast to Hattiesburg (City of Hattiesburg).
- Fields are small (200 and 225 feet), so this is a park for younger age groups (Hattiesburg Diamond Youth Baseball).
- Both hotels below are off Hardy Street near I-59 about 11 minutes away, Grin Coffee is about 7 minutes out and the Hattiesburg Zoo is about 9.
