West Mobile County Park

Recreational Features

Found in Mobile, Alabama, West Mobile County Park spans a generous 70 acres, offering a little something for everyone who loves the outdoors.

The park has eight lighted ball fields where you can catch or play softball, soccer, or football. These fields aren't just sitting pretty - they're bustling with activity from girls' softball/fast pitch leagues (ages 4 to 18), adult softball teams (men's, women's, coed, and church leagues), flag football games, and youth soccer matches.

Sports and Tournaments

All year long, the park hosts regional sporting events, with all eight fields being used during events like the Babe Ruth regional baseball tournaments.

You'll come across the softball fields particularly well-kept and clean, with good accessibility for those with mobility challenges. That said, the soccer fields could use a bit more TLC - some lights don't work properly, and certain access roads could use some attention.

Disc Golf

Disc golf enthusiasts, this one's for you - the park features an 18-hole disc golf course known as the Terri Mosley Memorial Disc Golf Course. With lighting for evening play, this course accommodates both casual throwers and serious competitors.

The course winds along a drainage ditch through wooded areas, creating an interesting challenge. Just a heads up: it can get pretty muggy in the lower sections, especially on hot days, so bring water if you're planning to play a round.

Amenities and Facilities

The park offers plenty of space to spread out and enjoy yourself. You'll discover clean restroom facilities (including portable toilets), concession areas for when hunger strikes, and picnic tables great for a family lunch.

Kids can burn off energy at the shaded playground, a thoughtful touch that keeps the summer sun at bay. Everything's laid out in a way that makes getting around pretty straightforward.

Park Policies and Atmosphere

Just note that you'll need to leave your furry friends at home - the park has a no pets allowed policy. Overall, it's a peaceful, well-maintained space that strikes a nice balance between activity and tranquility.

Future Developments

Renovations are currently underway at West Mobile County Park, with plans for an accessible splash pad and an expanded playground area.
