We’re excited to share an important update about the future of Avon softball—and invite you to be part of it.
Over the past decade, Avon Little League Softball has grown from just 44 players in 2012 to more than 100 today. As participation has increased, the need for safe, modern, and dedicated facilities has become clear. Our teams currently share limited fields at Fisher Meadows, which lack many essentials such as dugouts, scoreboards, and fencing.
Despite these challenges, our players have continued to shine—winning Avon’s first-ever District Championship, earning back-to-back District titles, and advancing deep into the state tournament. Their success reflects not only their hard work, but the strength and support of our community.
To better meet the needs of our athletes, a brand-new softball field is now under construction at Sperry Park. This shared facility will serve both baseball and softball and will also become the new home for Avon High School Softball, helping build a strong connection between our youth and high school programs. Construction is underway thanks to generous support from the State of Connecticut and the Town of Avon, and the field is expected to be completed by Spring 2026.
As we prepare for this exciting next chapter, Avon Little League is raising funds for continued enhancements—improvements that will ensure all of our fields are safe, functional, and welcoming for players, families, and the entire community.
We are offering four levels of giving:
• Platinum – $2,000
• Gold – $1,000
• Silver – $600
• Bronze – $350
All donors—families, individuals, and businesses—will be recognized on a permanent donor wall at the new facility.

Coming Soon: Engraved Donor Bricks!
We are particularly excited to announce that engraved donor bricks will soon be available at the site of the new field. These customizable bricks—offered in three different sizes—can include names, messages, and even select images. A link to purchase will be shared shortly.
This is a wonderful way to leave a lasting legacy at Sperry Park and show your support for the next generation of Avon athletes.
Your support will help create high-quality fields our athletes can be proud of and will make a lasting impact on the future of Avon softball. Thank you for considering a contribution and for all you do to support our players and community.
