NIKE SOFTBALL CAMP FAQ

For general questions about our softball camps please see our FAQ page.

Camps are open to any and all entrants, limited only by number, age, grade level and/or gender.

The Softball Field is one of the premier venues in the Golden State Athletic Conference as it allows 360 degree views of the playing surface. Spectators have the choice between sitting behind the backstop or out in the field. Either way you will enjoy the sunny days Costa Mesa has to offer. It is 215' to get it out of the park in right field, 218' down the left line and 216' in center field. In the Fall of 2016, the entire playing field was resurfaced including additional drainage, laser leveling of the infield, and improvements to the backstop.
