| Sept. 15, 2014 Mr. Nick Men's 55 44 posts | Shadow Park Softball Complex We will be playing at Shadow Park (9/26-9/28) in the 50AAA Division. How are the fields? Thanks |
| Sept. 15, 2014 Mr. Nick Men's 55 44 posts | Actually we will be playing at Shadow Rock Park Complex. Thanks |
| Sept. 15, 2014 softball4b Men's 70 1248 posts | 2 Turf, 2 grass, almost always windy. |
| Sept. 15, 2014 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | To me, the complex feels like it is in the middle of nowhere. It's a hike from pretty much any of the hotels we stay at along Boulder Highway and farther than that from the Strip. |
| Sept. 15, 2014 BruceAZ Men's 70 155 posts | The 2 turf fields are ok, the 2 grass fields are pretty bad, the year we played there, they didn't cut the outfield grass. Luckily I play in the dirt and didn't have to wade through it. The lights are terrible if you have to play at night and it is way the heck out there in North East Vegas. |
| Sept. 15, 2014 Mr. Nick Men's 55 44 posts | Appreciate the information. Hopefully the grass fields are better this year. Hate to pay $695 to play on bad fields. Our team is staying on the strip so I guess we should allow plenty of time to get there. How is the weather in Vegas at the end of Sept. |
| Sept. 15, 2014 TexasTransplant Men's 70 516 posts | I would second what BruceAZ said about the fields. Last time I played on the grass fields, I got my feet tangled up in some kind of monster desert weed and nearly fell down. This thing had tendrils about half an inch in diameter and was about three feet across. I pulled it out by its roots and carried it to the dugout to convince my teammates I wasn't a total spaz! I would add that between the military aircraft coming in and out of Nellis AFB and the gun range up in the hills in the other direction it made me feel like I was back in a war zone. The weather in Vegas was great the last time I was there, but it can get pretty cool with the wind at Shadow Rock. |
| Sept. 15, 2014 Q19 Men's 65 81 posts | Its really not the far unless you're walking. You could get lucky and get a free AIR FORCE THUNDERBIRDS show. BruceAZ is correct about the grass fields. |
| Sept. 25, 2014 rlspls1974 Men's 65 119 posts | Does anyone know which of the fields numbers are turf at Shadow ? Just curious. Thanks |
| Sept. 25, 2014 DaveDowell Men's 70 4313 posts | Fields #1-2 are natural grass/dirt ... Fields #3-4 are the turf fields |
