Park Brochure

The second sports venue to be inducted into the National Softball Association’s (NSA) Hall of Fame, Cherry Park is Rock Hill’s premier softball/ baseball facility nestled in a beautiful 68 acre park with scenic trails, a large playground and numerous park amenities.  Cherry Park can be enjoyed year-round and provides athletic programs for both youth and adults.  The park is also proud to host some of the largest regional, state, and national tournaments in the country.

At the entrance to the softball/baseball complex stands a bronze statue of Mighty Casey, well-known to softball and baseball enthusiasts as the subject of Ernest Lawrence Thayer’s poem “Casey at the Bat.”  This 14’ public art work was crafted by Mark Lundeen in 1991.

There is no admission fee for the general use of the park, however, some tournaments and special events may require an admission fee.
