Rayleigh

In May 1973, the municipality of Rayleigh, British Columbia was added to the city of Kamloops, located on the east side of the North Thompson River to the south of the community of Heffley Creek. It is a 15 minute drive north of Kamloops city centre.

In the past years the City of Kamloops finished building a new recreational facility called ‘Tournament Capital Ranch’, just north of Rayleigh consisting of “Softball City”. The park is open seven days a week between 5am and 11pm and offers miles of river views, walking and tournament opportunities. It is one of Western Canada’s largest stand alone slo-pitch facilities and also has 2 full-size rugby fields, parking for up to 350 vehicles, washroom/plaza building, public washrooms, areas for concession and event rooms.
