Which baseball park complexes are the largest and stayed consistently filled with tournaments?

In BR - traction? Oak Villa?
Lafayette, Hammond? River Parishes?

I imagine many a marriage has split up indirectly from travel ball and all that goes into it.

I'll add Ruston and Sterlington as well in that part of the state, both were much better than I expected when I went to some tournaments there last year.

Youngsville stays busy enough that they're just about doubling the size of it.

I would actually put my money on competitive dance/cheer. A lot of mom's spending weekends out of state with other mom's drinking a lot and hanging out at the local bars after the girls go to bed. I imagine the money plus time already causes a rift in the marriage. Add in alcohol other mom's lamenting their husband's attitude towards the same. All you need is an opportunity, and while certainly not 100% and most likely not going out looking for it the first time. I would wager at least 30% of competitive dance/cheer moms have at minimum given up a double to a stranger on a four day trip to the beach or Orlando while the husband was at home watching the OF he subscribes to she doesn't know about.

Grand Isle needs to build a big complex so they can compete with all the other gulf coast sites for World Series.

They have one ball park on the island.

And I doubt the school has enough students to field a relay team or let alone a baseball or softball team.


But on the flip side some more ball fields would help out with some Alumni Tournaments if you wanted to have one in a different place.

in br- central, traction, oak villa all stay full

in Lafayette area its Broussard, then youngsville, then crowley then scott. all stay full

in alexanderia its johnny downs and the Parc in Natch

in LC its mainly power center and OD johnson even though Spar is nicer they are dumbasses and dont want tournaments there apparently

up north its Tinseley in bossier, sterlington sports complex and ruston sports complex.


the Lafayette area parks are the nicest in southern part of state with Broussard (St Jullian Park) as the nicest

Parc is nicest in CENLA

ruston is the nicest in the state overall and maybe the nicest in the south. park is crazy nice.

Grand Isle would have to full blown Middle East and build land for it.

Thibodaux has Peltier Park and The Farm. Not much for parks in Houma, which is kinda shocking.

Unfortunately you are correct. This one is always packed between soccer and baseball. Hate that place.
