I think Bottineau has the nicest one I've seen.

I don't like their infield. It's basically a gravel infield if I remember right.

Lisbon - beautiful setting down by the park, lots of trees, lots of seating, nice grandstand, watered infield, press box.

There outfield is too big. Just too much space, and wierd dimensions.

I will agree that Lisbon has a very nice field with lush green grass, just wish the outfield wasn't so deep and have wierd diminsons

Im from Watford and our field is pretty nice except the outfields a little patchy in some spots but other than that it's a really nice field.

I like Lamoure's field alot with the new turf and all have.. any of you guys played at maddock? That was the worst field in North Dakota. The infield is solid chuncks of rock! The right field fence is 220 maybe, idk how you can have a legion team play there. The score was 17-13 with 9 solo bombs combined, and the dugouts are just benches behind the fence.

Not unless they ripped out the grass.

If i remember right the left field fence was the short one the fence in right field wasn't as short as the one in left.

Not every town has the money to improve their facilities. Just be thankful that they are trying to have a team and compete, or else its just one less legion ballclub. At the rate we're going, there isn't going to even be 20 class B legion teams in the not too distant future.

Enderlin's playing surface last year was fantastic!I have been to alot of Class B fields and Class A over the years and it was the best I have ever been on. If the fence was not so short in center and down the line to right it would be definitely at the top.

True, Corbett is extremely nice. Long fences, warning track, good grass, nice mound; pretty much everything you would want.

Oh snap my bad I was reading too fast. I have never been to Minto before. Minot Metros would have to have the nicest field though.

Lamoures some of the niceset turf there is and their grounds crew does a good job taking care of the field as well. The only down fall of the Lamoure field is that its almost like your playing in the Oakland Atheltics field. There is so much foul ground room and if there are any wild throws runners can be running for a very long time. Still one of the nicest fielder Fields in ND

LOL!!!!!! WOW! "Big outfield"?!?!?! Since when was 300 down both lines and around 340 to center a big outfield. Except for Munich it is the smallest game played outfield in the NE corner of the state. Their infield surface is all dirt and hard as a rock with weeds growing along the entire edge. Home plate has holes that are at least 6 inches deep and never gets leveled out. The outfield is most definitely not smooth. It is set in a nice tree surrounded setting but the sun sets directly behind the pitcher and is extremely tough to see the ball. I wont even discuss the mound. It has great potential to be a beautiful field but needs some major work.
