Prior Lake Ballparks

Memorial Park is one of Prior Lake's oldest parks. Established in 1948, it's the site of the annual Memorial Day program and some great amateur baseball action during the summer months, headlined by the city's two townball teams, the Mudcats and Jays. Dedicated to those who served their nation in military service, Veterans Field at Memorial Park is the home of the Jays, Mudcats, Mariners, Bald Eagles, and Lakers of Prior Lake. Veterans Field at Memorial Park is located in Prior Lake, approximately one mile east of Highway 13 on County Road 44 (160th Street).

Thomas Ryan Memorial Park, located at 4600 Busse Parkway SE, is one of Prior Lake’s newest and most popular parks. It features first-rate athletic facilities and other amenities. Established in 2000, it is named after the first Prior Lake resident to lose his life, fighting in the Vietnam War.

Baseball games are played at Ponds #7 located in the lower half of the complex. Turn left and follow the road to the parking lot where the field is located. The Ponds contains a number of different fields for youth baseball and softball, in addition to football and soccer. There is a single regulation size baseball field located in the southeast corner of the complex.
