GREEN BAY, Wis.–The Green Bay Bullfrogs here have a new name: Capital Credit Union Park.
The Bullfrogs—who will also be getting a new name–play in the Northwoods League, a baseball league for college players.
The new stadium will be located at 2231 Holmgren Way and will host baseball, soccer and additional community events. Capital Credit Union Park will have a capacity of 3,359 for athletic events, 7,000+ for concerts and community events, and will feature club and suite space for up to 300 guests, according to the credit union.
Capital Credit Union Park is being built adjacent to the former CTI Concrete building, a 17,000-square-foot warehouse. The existing building will be renovated and will include a team store, concessions, restrooms, suites, a club space, locker rooms, team office and a hotel lobby style ticket office.
According to the Bullfrogs, the ballpark will feature spacious concourses throughout ranging from 20 feet at the narrowest point to up to 50 feet at some points. “Capital Credit Union Park will offer a variety of seating options to cater to all desires, including standard stadium seats, a grass berm, standing locations with drink rails, bar top seats and a suite and club area,” according to the ball club.
Other Design Elements
Additional unique design elements of Capital Credit Union Park include a 19-foot, 19-inch outfield wall in right field paying homage to the year the Green Bay Packers were founded, the team said, adding the majority of the outfield fence will be covered in digital signage enhancing the in-game experience for guests.
The all-turf field will host the Northwoods League’s Green Bay Bullfrogs, a to-be-named summer collegiate soccer team owned by Big Top and a variety of community athletic and social events, according to the team.
Big Top Baseball has also announced it is launching a “Name the Team Contest” fan initiative to encourage community input to re-name the Bullfrogs ahead of its relocation to Capital Credit Union Stadium for the 2019 season.
