Seating edit
There are three sets of bleachers at the park. Behind home plate is the largest, seating 200 people. On the sides to that by the dugouts are smaller bleachers that seat 50 people each.
The official capacity of Bannerwood Park is 300, but there is abundant room to stand and watch or sit in your own folding chair down the foul lines into the outfield.
