A Study in Destination Development

“This donation from the Team Lansing Foundation has given our area youth an improved facility, and created a site that is a regional draw for tournaments, which helps out the local economy. It’s a classic win - win.”

Holt High School

PROBLEM: A local school had sufficient baseball facilities, but due to inadequate
fencing, lost out on opportunities to host weekend tournaments for which it was
otherwise perfectly suited.

SOLUTION: The Greater Lansing Sports Authority saw the need; the Team Lansing Foundation assessed the potential, and then responded by facilitating the purchase of temporary, removable outfield fences.

RESULTS: The school recently hosted the Triple Crown Baseball Tournament as well as the BPA Under-11 World Series, and is now a desirable regional option for baseball and softball tournaments of all sizes.
