Knights Field

Knights Field is the home of the Middle Georgia State University softball program. MGA has produced championship quality teams in recent years while earning back-to-back appearances in the NAIA National Tournament in 2023 and 2024.

The Knights softball program earned their first-ever Southern States Athletic Conference (SSAC) Tournament championship in 2023 while finishing as the regular-season runner-up in 2023 and 2024.

Knights Field showcases a beautiful natural grass playing surface and an elevated seating area for spectators behind home plate. The facility has recently seen several upgrades including new backstop netting as well as new netting in front of the dugouts for increased player safety.

New fence windscreens showcase upgraded branding throughout the ballpark which makes for an attractive backdrop for one of the top collegiate softball facilities in the state of Georgia. A large, two-tunnel covered hitting structure is located down the left-field line while both dugouts feature large storage areas for team equipment. Team bullpens are enclosed with easy access to the field and dugouts.

Spectators can watch the games from the elevated bleachers behind home plate and along each baseline or choose to bring their own chair for exclusive seating at field level and behind the beautiful brick wall backstop. A press box for gameday personnel and media sits atop the bleachers and is located directly behind home plate.

The Knights also benefit from easy access to their home locker room which is housed inside the Athletic Training Facility (ATF), a building adjacent to Knights Field and a short walk to the entrance of the field. The ATF not only houses the team’s locker room but also showcases space for a Team Meeting Room, Film Room, Umpire changing room, Athletic Training Room and the coaches offices.

Also near Knights Field is Whipple Hall which houses MGA Athletics Administration offices as well as support amenities such as an Athletics Academic Resource Center and a student-athlete lounge. The team also has use of an Athletics-only weight room facility inside Morris Gym as well as the Recreation and Wellness Center for their training needs.
