EM City signs agreement with baseball, soccer leagues May 21, 2017, 8:01 amEagle Mountain has signed agreements with both the Eagle Mountain Baseball Association Inc. and the Utah Youth Soccer Inc. in order to better provide soccer and baseball programs for Eagle Mountain residents. According to city officials, both of these nonprofit organizations have experience in running competitive sports programs and therefore the city feels youth baseball and soccer participants would be best served by having the EMBA and UYSI manage the city's baseball and soccer programs. Sports leagues have already been utilizing Eagle Mountain parks for their programs. For example, Eagle Mountain Youth Soccer has a Soccer Training Camp planned this June that will take place at Smith Ranch Park. On the other hand, Eagle Mountain Youth Baseball had to delay the start of its baseball season due to the transition of management from the City of Eagle Mountain to the EMBA. Both the EMBA and UYSI youth sports programs will have access to the Eagle Mountain park facilities by scheduling their use with the city. The City of Eagle Mountain has made it clear that they expect the two organizations to maintain the highest standards in promoting positive youth sports programs while using the park facilities. As an added benefit to Wride Memorial Park, in particular, the city is moving ahead with plans to complete a concessions stand to serve the participants and spectators of baseball and soccer programs in the park. In addition to the concessions stand, the city is going ahead with plans to build shade structures for spectators using the baseball facility.Wride Memorial Park, in particular, the city is moving ahead with plans to complete a concessions stand to serve the participants and spectators of baseball and soccer programs in the park.
