PRACTICE FIELDS

The East County Hot Shots are excited about our ongoing agreement with the city of Oakley to have use of Magnolia Park, which is located at 5301 Daffodil Drive in Oakley.  This four acre park is recognized as having one of the greatest softball fields in the area. The beautifully manicured field was designed to have the most modern irrigation system for unparalleled performance.  The parks well-maintained infield surface is made of the finest quality cinder on the market. This provides players the confidence to focus on their training, knowing that the utmost care and consideration was taken for player's safety.

There are also many other amenities at the park for parents and siblings to enjoy while the athletes train. The spacious area is perfect to let the kids play, take the dog for a walk, or sit to enjoy a lunch at one of the covered picnic areas the park has to offer. Additionally there is a large playground for kids to rumble or for the daring, an extreme sports park where BMX and skateboarders alike show off their moves. The East County Hot Shots are committed to providing the ultimate facilities for its players and parents so that they can focus on fulfilling their goals in an environment that is challenging, safe, comfortable, and above all-fun.

The Hot Shots have also recently secured an additional practice field at Shady Oak Park in Oakley, CA. which is located at the intersection of Shady Oak Drive and Cedar Glen Drive which will benefit our teams by offering an additional practice location.
