Northrup Park’s renovated Field 11 expands opportunities for play

Boerne’s Field 11 at Northrup Park received a substantial renovation earlier this year, including a rebuilt playing surface and lighting that makes evening use possible.

In its March 4 report on the opening, the city described nearly 10 months of work. Improvements included grading, new infield material, outfield sod, irrigation, a scoreboard, a press box and new spectator seating.

The LED lighting is described as dark-sky compliant, directing illumination toward the field. Before the work, the city said Field 11 was not used for organized league play because of its condition and lack of lighting.

Funding came from the parks bond program approved in 2022, with $1.4 million set aside for Field 11 and related improvements at City Park.

Families looking for current league schedules or field availability should check with Parks and Recreation. The renovation announcement documents the facility investment rather than providing a current booking calendar.
