BGA has college level facilities with their indoor facility and the best field in Middle Tennessee. Heck, their facility compares to MTSU's before MTSU built the new stadium. The field and indoor facility is probably nicer at BGA. All built by the Smith Family. Not to embarass my friends in East Tn, but Lookout Valley and Walker Valley dont compare. Ive been to both places last yr and they are nice and among the top 10 in Middle Tennessee but they dont compare to BGA.

 

Dont forget to mention the MONSTER WALL @ BGA.

i know white house has a great field.

 

 

Yep, gotta agree...White House has done proud since they built the place a few (several) years ago. Bathrooms, parking and concessions are also par or above. Honorable Mentions in Middle TN. (for one reason or another), Mt. Juliet (can't wait to see the new stuff..), Friendship Christian (watch where you park), Lebanon, LaVergne (double check bathroom door lock), Goodpasture (but not concessions), and Wilson Central (esp. for concessions).

Sure I'm forgetting a bunch but I'll add to list as the season progresses...

No school in the Chattanooga area has facilties comparable to Walker Valley. The facility was the brainchild of the legendary Coach Turner. The playing surface is top rate. The home dugout, indoor hitting facility, dressing room, and storage room are all under one roof. Nice concessions and press box. Not a bad seat in the park. Easy access from interstate 75 makes the facility more appealing.

 

 

You should have let him in on the design of your Gymnasium. It is a JOKE!!!

its been awhile and i don't remember who i was arguing with between the nicest field: catholic or farragut, but after sportsbelle, (Which catholic did host games for by the way) catholic has the nicer field and playing surface undoubtedly, but farragut has the nicer surroundings with the hitting facilities and bleachers and such.

We shouldn't forget Gibbs. When the center tower with pressbox and concessions are completed this year, Gibbs will resemble an SEC venue. The playing surface, dugouts, and everything "inside the gate" is undoubtedly one of the nicest in East TN. Also, fieldhouse, and indoor facility is new, large, and very nice.

 

Pigeon Forge should also be mentioned! Coach Guinn has done a wonderful job of restoring the field after the last coach left it in ruins! New bullpens this year are the nicest around.

 

Catholic is with out question the nicest surface, but it doesn't have the ballpark feel to it. Maybe its the surroundings.

Everyone has their own opinion. Some are just wrong. ^

There is no school in Tennessee that compare to the field that Oakland has, as they have a coach that stays on the field 24/7 to make sure it is ready and clean. /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

 

I'm sure Oakland is very nice, but surely you don't think they are the only ones who work on their field. I know several HS coaches and most all are working on their field more than anything else.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
