League City is making significant investments in its community parks. During the Feb. 11 City Council meeting, the city approved roughly $1 million in upgrades at Lobit Park and Hometown Heroes Park. Additionally, two baseball fields at Chester Davis Sportsplex were renamed to honor longtime youth baseball coaches Malcom Daly and Brad Harris.
According to city documents, the approved improvements include $428,000 to replace the roof at the Hometown Heroes facility, $65,000 to replace the multipurpose room floor at Hometown Heroes Park, and $507,000 for Phase 2 of Lobit Park’s redevelopment.
The first phase of the Lobit Park project, set to begin in September, will cost approximately $2.2 million. The second phase will introduce a basketball court canopy, multipurpose sports fields, a fitness court, a detention pond, a gazebo, and a walking trail.
City Council also unanimously voted to rename two baseball fields at Chester Davis Sportsplex in honor of Daly and Harris. Both men were instrumental in developing young athletes through the League City Pony Colt Baseball Association, offering countless hours of coaching without financial gain.
Lynn Davis, founder of the League City Pony Colt Baseball Organization, supported the renaming, emphasizing the coaches' dedication to mentoring young players. “Their service to our community and youth was invaluable,” she wrote in a letter to City Council.
Mayor Nick Long stated that renaming the fields ensures Daly’s and Harris’s legacies live on, honoring their commitment to League City’s youth baseball community.
