PLAY BALL! is underway at more than $7 million dollars of improvements at the city of College Station’s Brian Bachmann community park.
One of the projects approved by College Station city voters in November 2022, there is a new building for little league, another building for senior league and soccer, and new covered seating and protective netting at four ballfields.
The project demolished structures built in 1984 and 1994 and were replaced with facilities that have expanded restrooms, concessions areas, and storage for user groups.
One building has a plaque recognizing Bill Whitehead, who spent more than 30 years with College Station Little League as a coach and board member.
The other building has a plaque recognizing Jodie Moore, who served on the College Station Little League board from 1997-2001 and was American League president between 1999-2001.
