Beavers Field was an idea of Al Beavers many years ago when he was coaching the American Legion Post 11 Baseball team (1974-1988). After playing on several nice ballparks around the country, Al thought it would be nice to build a field to play Legion baseball instead of the local high school fields. Al felt if land could be acquired close to the city, it could become a community project. After inquiring about available land owned by the County, it was discovered that several acres were leased for farming on Rt 37 (Granville Pike). With a July 1987 telephone conversation and several months of negotiating, an agreement was reached with the County Commissioners to a long term lease of the 13 1/2 acres to a non profit corporation - Fairfield County Baseball Complex Association Inc. (FCBCA). With the land available, the next step was to raise money to get this hillside property to resemble a baseball complex.
Look through the gallery and see how the field develops.
Beavers Field is a proud supporter of American Legion Baseball (ALB).
ALB is perhaps the finest summer baseball program available for high school students in Ohio and the Nation. ALB has been turning out college and Major League Baseball players for decades.
But more than that, ALB prepares young men to be productive Citizens. High school aged young men are invited to participate in the nation’s most competitive youth baseball program, which has taught teamwork, good sportsmanship and physical fitness to generations of young men, along with promoting citizenship in their communities.
