Hunt Softball Park was constructed prior to the 2013 softball season and is named in honor of Vicky and Sam Hunt of Burlington, N.C., who gave lead gifts of more than $1.25 million for the project.  Vicky Hunt is an Elon trustee and Sam is a local business leader and a softball fan.

A gift of $500,000 from the BB&T Corporation, one of the largest financial services holding companies in the nation, helped in the construction of the facility.  In honor of that gift, the playing surface is known as BB&T Field.

The first phase of the construction included brick grandstands with seating for 311 fans, a spacious press box, concourse and concessions area, two batting cages and a bullpen on the home side and a bating cage and bullpen on the visitors' side.

The second phase of Hunt Softball Park was completed in 2013 and included the Phoenix Softball Clubhouse which features a new team locker room, coaching offices, a training room and more.

The facility features a natural grass outfield, a synthetic turf infield apron and a high-tech clay infield with optimal drainage, allowing games to be played within minutes of a rainstorm.
