The home of the Yellow Jacket softball team is Glenn Field, located near the Georgia Tech campus just off 14th and Mecaslin Streets. With a seating capacity of up to 500 spectators, Glenn Field has been home to the Tech softball program since the inception of fastpitch play in 1987. The dimensions of the field are 190 feet to left, 220 feet to center and 190 feet to right. The Jackets have experienced great success at Glenn Field, going 62-11 (.849) at home over the last four seasons. Tech eclipsed 200 wins at Glenn Field in 2004. Glenn Field, maintained by Georgia Tech sports turf manager Kris Harris and his staff, is continually being improved. Recent improvements include a new infield in 2004, a warning track expansion, improved drainage, the addition of full windscreens and a new indoor batting cage this fall 2005. A new, state-of-the-art scoreboard was added for the 2002 season. A warning track was added around the outfield and in front of the dugouts. A trailer was installed behind the backstop, housing a public address booth and a team locker room. New bleacher seating was installed before the 2005 season behind home plate and a brand new public address system was put in place. Also, wall signage and flags of the ACC schools were added to enhance the appearance of the outfield. Other recent improvements include a new irrigation system and a second phone line for radio broadcasts.
