A new softball field for WMHS?

Updated: Feb 18, 2019

The Wakefield Memorial High School Varsity Softball Team currently plays their home games at Veterans Field in Wakefield. While this can be a picturesque location when weather permits, it is a Men's Slowpitch field and not ideally suited for the Fastpitch game. There is a neglected field on the Campus of WMHS that we are proposing to be upgraded to a first-rate, regulation High School Field.


We presented our intent at the School Committee Meeting back on December 18, 2018 and were invited back for a more robust discussion at the School Committee Meeting on January 23, 2019.


There was a nice piece in the local paper you can see here: https://www.localheadlinenews.com/wmhs-softball-field/


There was also a video on Facebook of the whole meeting which you can see here (our 10 minute presentation starts about 2 minutes in):

Pictured here is Pine Banks in Melrose, the field on which we are basing our new design.
