The complex includes a football field, an all-weather running track, and three lighted soccer fields.Located along Walnut Avenue, to the north of Pacific Coast Highway, the basin was built in 1936 to capture stormwater runoff from the Signal Hill area, as well as oil from an occasional oil gusher from one of the oil wells that dotted the neighborhood at the time. The basin still slows the peak flow of water downstream to the Los Angeles River during major storms; restoration of submerged playing fields after such occurrences takes about 90 days. The bowl overflowed during the 1939 California tropical storm.The baseball diamonds were originally built in the detention basin in 1950, with major expansions that included a soccer field and parking in the 1960s and the 1970s. Hamilton Bowl was renamed in 1983 in honor of Brian Chittick, a creator of the Kid Baseball Association, and in 2021 was again renamed to Dee Andrews Sports Complex at Chittick Field after a former city council member.
