Sports Park — Attraction in Barstow

What a beautiful sports complex. Our kids are in Little League and play all over the High Desert, and this is one of our favorite fields to play on. They have three upper fields immediately on your left as you enter and three lower fields if you continue walking straight. They have ramps that help anyone pushing a stroller, wheelchair, wagon, or anyone who prefers to avoid stairs. The restrooms are cleaned and stocked with hygienic supplies.

If the weather is unbearable, you can always stay in your vehicle and drive around the desert areas and watch the game...

Renting the fields and cages is an easy and inexpensive process. It has a small play area for littles to be entertained. The open land surrounding the parkins great for walking running or even offroad vehicles (check for legality of offroadinv there though). The only reason for the lost star is that the pitching machines need to be serviced and no one on site is able to do that. But that is the only negative...
