Field surface: Grass outfield, infield not stated
Grass outfield, infield not stated. The joint-use amendment attached to the City of Hanford's Oct 21, 2025 council packet says the fields are maintained by mowing, edging, fertilizing and aerating, with rye overseeding when the schedule allows. No synthetic turf is mentioned. The documents don't describe the infields. (5 lit softball fields around a central concession and restroom building. From Jan 1, 2026, Field 5 is reserved for Sierra Pacific High School, so the City schedules Fields 1–4 (City of Hanford).)
Cleats: Not stated by the city or NSA event pages we found. Check your event rules.
