The Centre is a five-diamond complex that incorporates
three relatively new diamonds (built in 2002) and two previously
established diamonds within the same precinct
The new fields include a main diamond constructed to international
standards, featuring award winning field lighting, sunken dugouts,
a large LCD scoreboard and elevated bullpens positioned that extend
on the first and third base lines
The playing surfaces for all three new diamonds is considered
to be the best in the country
It is anticipated that the established diamonds will be soon renovated
to bring their surfaces up to a similar standard
The Geelong Baseball Centre boasts one of the highest standard
baseball facilities in the country - and it will continue to improve
as further infrastructure is included over time
The main pavilion has been constructed to cater for various uses
- centred mostly on baseball of course!
From the local club domestic competition to national and international
tournaments, the pavilion offers a spacious sixty seat open area
for catering purposes, administration and storage rooms, bar and
canteen amenities, and able and disabled toilet facilities
When extra space is required, marquees can be added to the open
terrace next to the pavilion - an option that not only increases
functionality but also one that creates a carnival-like atmosphere
that provides a greater enjoyment factor for the avid baseball
patron
The viewer friendly terraces offer a great elevated view of the
action on the main diamond
Individual team change-rooms, a medical amenities office, an umpires
room and a four person elevated scorers/announcers box that allows
clear view of the field of play complements the main pavilion
A second pavilion that serves the two established diamonds of
the five-diamond complex is located adjacent to the main centre
This building increases the Centres flexibility to cater for larger
off-field social events
It includes a well-appointed kitchen/canteen area and bar facilities
