New and Improved: Upgrades Underway for MMA Baseball

Renovations are underway to upgrade Brad Calvert Baseball Field at Missouri Military Academy. The work supports MMA’s strategic plan objective to develop cadet life programs such as competitive band, athletic and military teams and strong intramural programs that attract and retain cadets, build esprit de corps, and encourage participation in recreational activities. The newly renovated field, coupled with indoor training facilities in the Almada Field House, will attract new baseball-minded cadets to our campus. This facility will match MMA’s other top-notch facilities and fields as well as enable the Academy to compete for hosting district tournaments. In addition, the improved field will meet standards to enable college and semi-professional teams to play games here during the offseason. MMA will also offer the field for a baseball summer camp or as a minor league baseball training camp. 30
