The featured baseball field for Little League, Jul-2016, as seen from right field.

From the press box, the entire expanse of the field is visible.

Quick Facts:
Veterans Field is a multipurpose facility along Belgrove Drive, extending from Bergen Avenue to Afton Street. The town park hosts baseball, softball, football, and soccer, with the south end of the park nearest Bergen Avenue dedicated to the Kearny Little League. The park gets its name from its location opposite Veterans Row, a block of Belgrove Drive that is home to halls for the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and Marine Corps League.

Prior to the 2012 season, a new, uniquely shaped and “green” building was installed as a fieldhouse for the Little League. As of July 2015, Veterans Field was the only field used for Major level baseball in its Little League district to still feature a dirt infield; however, artificial turf was installed that November. The complex is now adaptable for as many as three baseball or softball fields, with the main field usable for two different pitching and base distances, and the other two fields are dismantled to allow for football or soccer in the fall.
