There’s a new sports complex coming to Wicomico County in the next few months.

The 60 acre site of the Mid Atlantic Youth Sportsplex will be located just outside of Pittsville near Route 50.

The facility will feature soccer, field hockey and lacrosse.

But it will not cater to softball.

Local businessman John Barrett told WBOC that it look to host tournaments in these sports but added that softball was not among.

He said that the region has plenty of softball fields.

Barrett added that he has been talking with the tourism departments in Wicomico and Worcester counties about the benefits of the new complex.
