There are concession and restroom facilities at the stadium, plus a family picnic area. Amenities include the Pirate Club fundraising and hospitality suite and a private suite for the LeClair family. The venue was built with $11 million in private donations. The playing surface consists of Celebration Bermuda turf with a clay base infield and crushed-brick warning track.
