Originally constructed in 1994, the Peoria Sports Complex set a precedent for Spring Training facilities by hosting both the San Diego Padres and the Seattle Mariners. This innovative strategy has since become the model for several other Spring Training complexes throughout the Valley.
After twenty years, the facility needed to upgrade its amenities to meet the evolving demands of both teams. As teams began using their facilities year-round for rehabilitating injured players, player development, and future player scouting, it became essential to modernize the complex.
Each clubhouse was expanded to 68,000 square feet, with improvements including the renovation of both major and minor league training facilities, coaching staff areas, meeting spaces, and administrative offices. Additionally, updates were made to the existing weight rooms to better serve the teams’ needs.
