The stadium opened to the public with a grand opening ceremony on February 21, 2009 and held its first Cactus League spring training baseball game on February 25, 2009. The stadium complex is owned by the city of Goodyear and contains the main field with a seating capacity of 10,000 along with serveral practice fields and team offices. The main entrance behind home plate features a 60 foot 6 inch fiberglass statue titled "The Ziz" created by artist Donald Lipski.
