Field surface: not yet verified
Not yet verified. The Greater Yakima Girls Softball Association (GYGSA), which built out the complex with the City of Selah, and the facility's tournament listings describe four matching tournament fastpitch fields with "quality playing surfaces," but none of them say turf or dirt. (4 matching fastpitch fields with permanent 200-foot fences and lights on each field (facility listing). GYGSA's 2026 Sock It To 'Em packet used Fields 1–4 and 7, with Field 5 possible.)
Cleats: Not stated. Check your event's rules.

Quick facts

- A central building has restrooms, concessions and a tournament office. Every field has its own scoreboard, shaded fixed bleachers and safety netting over the spectator area (facility listing).
- The complex hosted the 2024 WIAA 2A State Softball Championships (Sports Planning Guide).
- Selah has no hotel on our list; all four below are in Yakima, about 9–11 minutes south on I-82.
