Default Softball Diamonds in the SW

So I spent the last 2 hours driving around to different parks in the SW and found the majority of Softball and Baseball diamonds in pretty poor condition. Overgrown grass and most of the fields don't have any shale, and the ones that do only have them at home plate, the three bases and pitchers mound.

I'm looking for a nice Softball Diamond with complete shale infield and decent outfield with enough room to hit some long balls.

Anyone recommend a place I can check out? I was at George Moss Park in Ogden last week and they have a beautiful diamond there, but Ogden is a little out of the area I am trying to organize. Looking for something no further south than Southland drive, the further north, the better.

Thanks.

There are 4 in Glamorgan (51st and 46ave) that are all shale infields

I play in a City of Calgary run league that plays out of Tom Brook athletic park (Southland Leisure Centre), and Woodbine.

The fields are terrific and well maintained, and the outfield is fenced in at 260 feet. Should be enough room unless you have jacked bats.

The diamonds are likely booked for league play most of the time but they will let you play afetr playoffs? (August 11)
