RIVERBEND PARK

I WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT RIVERBEND PARK IN WACO. WE WERE DOWN THERE LAST WEEKEND, AND WHAT A GREAT PARK. EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PARK WAS GREAT. WACO SHOULD BE PROUD OF THIS PARK.

Sounds good to me - just one thing though.....





Quit yelling at everyone!

It IS a nice park...the girls liked the fields. They put up temporary fences when we were there so a shot to the gap doesn't roll to 300ft! The temporary fences also allowed for lots of room to warm up before games. They actually gave themselves a small cushion between games so they didn't all run together and eventually run late into the night....by limiting the number of teams (12 per group) they cut down on the chance that everyone would run over as well.

The only drawbacks are the gate fee and not being allowed to bring in food or drink. Yes, they provide water for the girls in the dugout, but it's straight from the tap in Waco and tastes terrible so you end up buying something else anyway.

Overall, it's a good place to play for a reasonable entry fee.

Just my opinion.

nice complex for sure and the tournaments are well ran and they actually update the VTD scores which is nice if you are only following the tournaments
