Documented Configuration

Bethany High School, Newcastle SC, PCO Girls SC

  • $29,640 in Calculated Team Entry Fee activity.
  • 57 teams.
  • 199 minimum games.
  • 398 minimum umpire assignments.
  • BIG Show Productions is the identified director in this Page 3 population.
  • The report displays the municipality grouping as Bethany, Newcastle, Putnam City.

Association is not allocation.

This $29,640 is one pool of calculated activity associated with records identifying the entire multi-facility configuration. It should not be divided among the listed facilities, and it should not be attributed in full to Newcastle Sports Complex, Bethany High School or PCO Girls SC without additional documentation establishing allocation.

How to Read the Facility Report

Direct, Associated & Combined Are Different Analytical Populations

DIRECT

Primary Facility Alone

Records listing Newcastle Sports Complex independently as the event facility. This is the report's most conservative facility-specific view.

ASSOCIATED

Multi-Facility Configuration

Records involving Newcastle Sports Complex within a larger multi-site event. The record establishes association among facilities, not allocation of teams, games, fees or officials.

COMBINED

Broadest Documented Footprint

Direct Primary Facility activity plus associated multi-facility activity. This view documents the overall footprint involving the facility across both categories.

Calculated Team Entry Fee Methodology

Participation × Publicly Posted Fee = Calculated Team Entry Fees

The Hidden Valley dataset applies the calculation at the applicable event-record level and aggregates the result for analytical purposes. A calculated amount documents the relationship between publicly reported participation and publicly posted pricing. It does not independently prove collection, receipt, distribution, ownership, profit, tax treatment or disposition of funds.

Participating Teams

The publicly documented number of teams associated with an applicable event record.

Publicly Posted Team Entry Fee

The fee displayed in the available public event information. Unsupported local fees are not imputed.

Calculated Team Entry Fees

An analytical estimate of documented economic activity, not verified revenue or audited receipts.

Tournament, League & $0.00-Fee Interpretation

Operational Activity and Financial Fields Must Remain Distinct

Tournament Activity

The Facility Report documents tournament-associated teams, facilities, directors, minimum games and minimum umpire assignments.

League Activity

The direct Newcastle Sports Complex view separately identifies 37 league teams and $13,545 in League Team Entry Fees.

$0.00-Fee Records

A $0.00 publicly displayed Team Entry Fee does not necessarily mean no operational activity occurred. The public record alone may not explain a zero-dollar listing.

Geographic & Director Network

What the Report Identifies

Geographic Relationships

The direct Primary Facility population identifies Newcastle as the single municipality. The associated multi-facility population uses the combined municipality label Bethany, Newcastle, Putnam City. Page 4 records two municipalities and two counties in the combined analytical footprint.

Tournament Directors

The direct population identifies Jason Meece and BIG Show Productions. Across the combined footprint, the report associates $38,280 with Jason Meece and $37,440 with BIG Show Productions. These are calculated activity concentrations, not verified compensation or income.

Newcastle Sports Complex - September 2026 Project Update

Where the City of Newcastle Project Stands

The 2023 Newcastle Sports Complex Master Plan remains an approved long-range framework, but it should not be confused with a fully funded authorization to construct the entire envisioned 11-field complex. The public record shows that Newcastle has moved from planning into physical construction, while the immediate funded work has been narrowed to foundational access and site infrastructure.

MASTER PLAN APPROVED  •  PHASE I UNDER CONSTRUCTION  •  FULL 11-FIELD BUILDOUT REMAINS A LONG-TERM, FUNDING-DEPENDENT VISION
Master Plan Approved by Newcastle City Council in June 2023
Expansion Land Approximately 22.36 acres acquired in 2022 for $950,000
Construction Start Reduced Phase I began June 8, 2026
Full 11-Field Buildout Not documented as fully funded or constructed
Key research distinction: the 11-field concept represents Newcastle's long-range desired end state. The 2026 construction project is a narrower implementation phase focused on entrance, parking, exit, sidewalk, drainage and related access/site improvements.
2020
The existing sports-complex property came under City ownership, and Newcastle pursued Land and Water Conservation Fund support for improvements.
2022
The City acquired approximately 22.36 acres west of the existing complex for $950,000 to support expansion.
June 2023
City Council approved the Sports Complex Master Plan envisioning 11 fields, recreation space, walking paths, restrooms, parking and accessibility improvements.
2023-2024
Federal review, archaeological requirements and sharp construction-cost escalation affected implementation of the original scope.
2024
The City publicly acknowledged that available grant funding could no longer deliver the original Phase I scope.
2025
Additional design work narrowed the immediate project principally toward parking, roadway and access improvements.
End of 2025
Engineering and design for the revised phase were reported complete.
June 8, 2026
Physical construction began after spring league and tournament activity.
September 2026
Reported target for completion of the reduced Phase I - not the entire master plan.

Original / Broader Master Plan Vision

  • 11-field expanded sports complex.
  • Baseball, softball and other field-sport capacity.
  • Park-style recreation area and walking path.
  • Restrooms and accessibility improvements.
  • Expanded parking and visitor amenities.
  • Long-term regional, year-round sports-complex development.

Documented 2026 Construction Emphasis

  • Entrance and exit improvements.
  • Parking and traffic circulation.
  • Sidewalk and ADA-related access components.
  • Drainage and reinforced concrete pipe work.
  • Curb, striping, directional arrows and ADA symbols.
  • Foundational civil/site infrastructure rather than the full buildout.
Public-Finance Context

Expansion Land Represents a Long-Term Municipal Commitment

Newcastle's FY2022 audit identifies the expansion land acquisition at $950,000. A November 2025 City financial summary reported the related financing at 3.09% interest, a monthly payment of $5,342.06, principal remaining of $844,130.51, and maturity on November 1, 2042.

$0 Expansion Land Purchase
0 Approximate Acres
3.09% Loan Interest Rate
$0 Monthly Payment
$0 Principal Remaining - Nov. 2025
Nov. 1, 2042 Reported Loan Maturity
Newcastle has moved beyond planning into physical construction, but the complete sports-complex vision approved in 2023 has not yet been delivered. The City is building foundational access and site infrastructure while the larger expansion remains dependent on future funding, grants and subsequent approvals.

Facility-Specific Research Summary

Newcastle Sports Complex - Documented USSSA Activity Profile

The Facility Report identifies $46,080 in direct Primary Facility Calculated Team Entry Fees for Newcastle Sports Complex, all displayed as softball, with $0 in baseball. The stand-alone population includes 286 teams, 984 minimum games, 1,376 minimum umpire assignments, two tournament directors, one municipality and one county. The report also separately displays 37 league teams and $13,545 in League Team Entry Fees.

Annual activity is concentrated in three displayed seasons: 2021 ($36,909), 2022 ($8,300) and 2020 ($871). The strongest documented direct season is 2021. The direct director chart associates $38,280 with Jason Meece and $7,800 with BIG Show Productions.

Page 3 identifies a separate associated multi-facility population for the configuration Bethany High School, Newcastle SC, PCO Girls SC. That configuration is associated with $29,640 in Calculated Team Entry Fee activity, 57 teams, 199 minimum games and 398 minimum umpire assignments, with BIG Show Productions identified as director. The $29,640 is one combined activity pool; the public record does not establish its allocation among individual facilities.

Combining the direct and associated analytical populations yields a $75,720 combined documented facility activity footprint, 343 teams, 1,183 minimum games and 1,774 minimum umpire assignments. This is the broadest documented footprint involving Newcastle Sports Complex, not proof that every dollar, team, game or official occurred exclusively there.
