Jaycee Ballpark (named for the Junior Chamber of Commerce) is a rebuilt facility on the original site of the ballpark that was used for low minor league baseball after the second World War.

The current stadium structure is simple, and the field features artificial turf in the infield and in foul territory but a grass outfield. The current turf is a variety of FieldTurf installed during the 2017-18 offseason, during which a new scoreboard was also installed in right field.

Two high schools use the park as their home field, and it is used for other games including American Legion ball throughout the summer. Pittsburg State University has its own on-campus field across town.
