Fesmire Softball Field
Directions to Union University
The Fesmire Softball Field is located on campus at Union University (1050 Union University Drive; Jackson, TN 38305) and is located just inside the south entrance (Country Club Lane entrance).Â
Fesmire Field is the name given to both the Union University baseball and softball fields. The Fesmire Fields were complete in time for the 1998 baseball and softball seasons. The current fields replaced the old Union baseball field which stood since 1975, and softball field which was built for the first season of Union softball in 1995.Â
The current softball field sits in basically the same location as the old field, but was moved slightly to line up with the baseball field. The two fields share the press box, restroom, and concessions facilities.
In 2005, the Fesmire Fieldhouse (sitting adjacent to the baseball and softball fields) was completed. It houses a 9,000 square-foot turf room, locker rooms and offices (baseball, softball, men's soccer, women's soccer), training room, officials dressing room, and laundry.Â
Fesmire Fields were named after long time Union University supporters Benny and Norma Fesmire, who were very generous to the university and to the athletic department over the years.
Fesmire Field softball dimensions:Â Lines 210 feet;Â Alleys 210 feet; Center 210 feet
