Lakeview Park Softball and Youth Baseball Complex

Nestled within the scenic grounds of Lakeview Park in Frankfort, Kentucky, the Lakeview Park Softball and Youth Baseball Complex is Central Kentucky’s premier diamond sports destination. Opening spring 2027, this publicly owned facility features seven NCAA-regulation diamonds with turfed infields and foul territory, arranged in a 4-plex and 3-plex configuration with fences set at 220 feet and under. Two full-service concession stands, a playground, and ample on-site parking ensure a seamless experience for players and families alike. Designed to host any level of softball tournament and youth baseball up to 12U, the complex draws regional and national events from organizations including PGF, Alliance, and USSSA. Beyond tournament weekends, the facility reimagines local youth leagues and activates year-round programming for the Franklin County community, all set within the greater Lakeview Park just minutes from the heart of the state capital.
