HiCast Sports Network, a game-changing, subscription-based social broadcast company which allows youth athletes, their coaches, families and friends to view sporting events at top venues across the nation anywhere, anytime, on any device, is proud to announce Shipyard Park as a new venue partner.
Shipyard Park is the Southeast’s only waterfront baseball complex. The 20-acre facility includes five fields located in Charleston, South Carolina. The premier athletic facility, built by Harbor Contracting and owned by Detyens Shipyards, sits on the banks of the Wando River at the company’s old shipyard site that was shuttered in 2006. Shipyard Park includes a 17,500 square foot climate-controlled training facility containing retractable batting cages, and basketball & volleyball court capabilities. Other highlights include three youth-size fields and two collegiate-size fields and top-of-the-line AstroTurf® specifically designed for baseball play, true bounces and natural speed of the game. The fields are also to host soccer, field hockey, and lacrosse games.
