If you plan on attending Thursday nights post season softball game vs Clinton, please remember that all tickets need to be purchased through Bound. No cash sales at the gate. All tickets must be purchased prior to the game

Information if you plan to attend post season baseball Friday night vs Wahlert
The exit you normally take to get to McAlleece Park where we play, exit 190, is CLOSED.
Instead, take exit 189B. And if you drive by it, you will have to go across the bridge into Wisconsin to turn around as it's the last exit in Iowa. When you get off the 189B exit, then you turn right at the stop sign and cross the train tracks. Stay to the right when you come to a fork in the road. When you come to a stoplight at 16th street, turn right and then take a right on Adm. Sheehy Drive and that takes you into the facility.
