The Large Diamond is also used by the USU and competitive Super League teams for game and tournament play.
The Little League Diamond and Pony Field is used by the Rocky Mountain School of Base-ball for competitive play. Providence recrea-tion teams, which includes a Pony League, also play daily.
The Soccer field draws large crowds to watch both recreational and competitive teams play. This field provides a great advertising alternative that is separate from the baseball scene.
