New Vision
Laney College Baseball will have it’s brand new, state of the art field
ready to go by Fall 2010
The long-awaited, long-delayed sports construction project is finally underway at Laney College. The formal
groundbreaking for the new athletic fields and field house took place on Nov. 23, but actual construction started in January.
Planners hope that the project—which includes a new baseball field, field house and a parking lot—will be completed in 13
months, in time for the Laney baseball team to play on its new field in 2011. The baseball team will play its 2010 home games at
the College of Alameda. The cost is estimated to be between $14-15 million with the money coming from Measure A funds that
voters passed in 2006. Laney College Athletic Director John Beam hopes that the total cost will come in at around $14.2 million.
“We’re two years behind schedule (in starting), but it is now moving forward and at a good rate,” he said. Phase One of the project
will be a new 95-space parking lot that (hopefully) will alleviate the parking problems of students, faculty and staff. The lot will be
at the corner of Eighth Street and Fifth Avenue and cars will be under a solar canopy that will generate solar power for the
campus. Phases Two and Three will include an 18,000-square foot, two-story field house that will house classrooms, coaches’
offices and new separate athletic training facilities for men and women. The baseball field will have a synthetic turf, a new press
box and groundskeeping facilities. All the phases are needed—parking is at a premium, coaches’ offices are small, male and
female athletes must use the same training room facilities and the baseball field has never been renovated since it was built in the
1960s. What is important, Beam stresses, is that these fields and facilities are classrooms—instructional areas for a segment of
the student population. “These are going to be huge classrooms out there where people can go every day and support what they
have to do. It is important to remember that our coaches are instructors,” Beam said. The lack of separate women’s athletic
training facilities has been a real concern; female athletes currently must venture into the training room that is located just outside
the men’s locker room if they wish to receive treatment. The new field house, with separate treatment rooms for men and women,
will eliminate that problem. “We are particularly excited that the training room will finally meet Title IX regulations and our women
athletes will know that they are important to our program,” Beam said in a statement. The new training environment and
classrooms will help improve Laney students’ performances in their chosen sports. Construction of this Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver-certified project is scheduled to be completed in February 2011.

Remembering How it Was
People will come...For reasons they can’t even fathom.
They’ll walk out to the bleachers and sit in their shirtsleeves on perfect afternoon.
They’ll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the base lines.
It will be just like when they were children and cheered their heroes, and they’ll watch
the game, and it will be as if they were dipped in magic waters. The memories
will be so thick, they’ll have to brush them away from their faces...
This field, this game, it’s part of our past. It reminds us of
all that was once was good, and it could be again.
Oh, People will come. People will most definitely come.
