After calling Laura Bradley Park home since the 1994 season, Bradley Softball moved to the north side of Peoria and now calls Petersen Hotels Field at the Louisville Slugger Sports Complex home starting in 2017.
Petersen Hotels Field is the signature diamond among 10 softball fields at the Louisville Slugger Sports Complex (8400 N. Orange Prairie Road) adjacent to the Hotels at Grand Prairie and retail district. Petersen Hotels Field features a completely synthetic surface; grand stand seating for 1,000 with additional, covered bleachers extending down each base line; a video board in right centerfield; night-game lighting; sunken dugouts equipped with a restroom in each; batting cages; and a concessions and merchandise stand. The stadium also is adjacent to a secondary stadium field and in close proximity to eight additional diamonds, as well as a 125,000-square-foot dome large enough for two more indoor fields.
In addition to calling Petersen Hotels Field home, Bradley has made use of the dome for practice during the winter months. The dome served as site for the 2018 Petersen Hotels Invitational which featured 2009 NCAA National Champion and two-time runner-up Washington, in addition to Saint Louis, Miami (Ohio) and Western Illinois.
Bradley played its first games at the facility April 1, 2017, opening a three-game series against Missouri State with a doubleheader.
Parking for all Bradley Softball games is free. Louisville Slugger Sports Complex provides full concession stands at Petersen Hotels Field and the Suite Fire Bar and Grille at the Dome.
