Eagleton Ballpark Project

Sports Facilities Management Contract Approved

We are pleased to announce that the contract between Blount County and Sports Facilities Management, LLC was approved by the Blount County Board of Commissioners on August 21, 2025.  SFM will be in charge of managing the day-to-day operations of Eagleton Ballpark.

The contract with SFM covers all management of the ballpark from A to Z. That means they will manage staffing, scheduling and booking, maintenance, upkeep, security, safety, insurance waivers, parking lot maintenance, ticket sales, and many other services to meet the operational needs of Eagleton Ballpark.

SFM promises to facilitate as many local/community programs as possible with a high degree of excellence.  Their mission is to improve communities through sports - and we know that they will help keep this ballpark a community ballpark. 

The final construction details are being completed, and we will keep everyone updated with more details as they are finalized.  Keep an eye out for an all new website for all things Eagleton Ballpark!

EAGLETON BALLPARK PROJECT UPDATE  

March 2025


While the remainder of the project is under construction, ECCA Baseball and Softball teams have both hosted their first home games on their new home fields!

Blount County Fire Protection District presented the flags and Mrs. Kim Juday with ECCA blessed us with the National Anthem. 

Special thank you to REO Cheesewagon and Eagleton alum Tina Rhea. How special to have her be there and be able to serve in the community where we all grew up.
