Softball Complex Operating Season April 1 - October 31
(Some scheduled events may occur slightly before or after these dates.)
Overview
The Armco Park Softball Complex features four lighted diamonds with synthetic turf infields, electronic scoreboards, and a public address system. The complex will accommodate youth baseball up to age 12 and all types of softball. The outfield fences are approximately 300 feet. Bases can be placed at 60, 65, or 70 foot intervals. The complex features a concession stand operated by Cin-Day Cafe that includes alcoholic beverages for sale Monday-Saturday.
There is a $3 admission fee at the gate for all participants 16 years of age and older. Some organizers and events may charge a higher fee, but only $3 of that fee goes to the Park District.
Slow Pitch Leagues
The Park District offers recreational mens and co-ed adult slow pitch softball leagues April through October. Mens leagues are offered on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings, and co-ed leages are offered on Fridays.
Sign-ups are by team. Team managers click here to view the session schedule and sign up online. League fee is $300 per team, which must be paid at least a week before the session starts. Early sign-ups more than a week in advance are eligible to put down a $60 deposit to secure their spot using the "pay later" option (not available on mobile devices).
There is an umpire fee of $15 per team per game, payable in cash only directly to the umpire at game time. The complex also charges a $3 admission fee at the gate for all participants and spectators 16 years of age and older.
If the type of league you are interested in is not offered, please contact us and let us know what you are looking for. The Park District is open to adding different types of leagues if there is sufficient interest.
Complex Rentals
We hope you’ll consider the Armco Park Softball Complex for your next tournament or event. The complex can be reserved Friday-Sunday and on weekdays when not being used for leagues. Concession services are offered by our partner Cin-Day Cafe for most events.
Reservations fill up fast, so please book well in advance. We offer two windows each year for organizers to submit requests using our online reservation system, and the Park District uses pre-determined criteria to select which organizer can reserve the complex for weekends where there are multiple requests. After the request window closes, first come-first served reservations are accepted for unfilled time slots.
The upcoming reservation request windows are as follows:
| Season | Request Window Starts | Request Window Ends | Decisions Announced | Deposits Due |
| Spring 2026 (April - July) |
July 14, 2025 | July 28, 2025 | August 4, 2025 | August 11, 2025 |

2025 Rental Rates
There is a two-tier structure for rental rates. The standard price assumes that the Park District will collect the $3 gate admission fee from all participants 16 years of age and older. The Gate Fee Buyout Option is an optional higher rate that can be paid if the organizer prefers for the Park District to not collect a gate fee.
