History of Diamond Point
The park was built in the early 2000's and was originally known as, "The Lumber yard." It was built for summer baseball and softball tournaments and Little League games. In 2010 the Bourbonnais Park District bought the facility and renamed it, Diamond Point Park. They began upgrading the facility to make improvements to accommodate other activities beyond baseball. There are more plans to expand the facility. The park district just finished phase 2 of a 3 phase plan.

Events held at the Park
The park is very popular in the summer for summer baseball and softball tournaments. The fields can fit any age group, so there is no limits on who they can have play at the field. Not only do they have summer tournaments, there are a few local high schools that will have their home baseball games at the park. The park district also holds an adult slow pitch softball league.
