PHOENIX — The Cactus Yards sports facility in Gilbert will offer the town’s first adult kickball league this winter.
Feb. 9 will be opening day for the venue, formerly known as Big League Dreams, which features replicas of pro ballparks.
The town closed the facility in June 2017 for repairs and safety improvements and terminated its contract with its private operator.
The seven-week adult kickball season will begin Feb. 11 with games on Thursday and Friday nights.
