General Reservation Information

Cary baseball/softball fields will be closed for reservations Nov 16-Feb 28 for maintenance and turf recovery.

The Town of Cary has lighted baseball/softball fields of various sizes available for reservation, when not programmed for use with Town leagues/activities. Fields may be reserved by groups or individuals March through mid November. Please note that field availability is very limited April through June due to Town league practices and games.

Reservation requests must be submitted a minimum of three business days in advance and requested dates cannot be more than seven days in advance.

Exception: Individuals or groups with a confirmed picnic shelter reservation at Kiwanis Shelter (Bond 1), Buehler Shelter (Bond 4) or Rotary Shelter (Ritter 1) may reserve the field associated with that picnic shelter up to 3 months in advance if the field is not in use for town programming.

Please visit Middle Creek Park, Thomas Brooks Park or USA Baseball if you are interested in reserving a baseball/softball field at one of these locations.
