DEBUT AS A TRIPLE-A AFFILIATE TEAM AND INVITES FANS TO ENJOY AN IMPROVED CONSTELLATION FIELD

In 2007, the City of Sugar Land launched a plan to drive economic growth by investing in local entertainment and amenities.

As part of this vision, the City and local developers worked together to build Constellation Field, with $36 million of public-private funding organized by SL4B and the goal to one day serve as home to a Triple-A baseball team.

In April of 2021, that dream came true and the baseball team previously known as the Sugar Land Skeeters was officially acquired by the Houston Astros and named the Sugar Land Space Cowboys, Triple-A Affiliate of the Major League franchise.

The City of Sugar Land committed $10 million of SL4B funds to renovate the stadium over a three-year period with the Astros planning to invest several million more in the coming years. Improvements in the first year included new full field stadium netting, new batting cages and a complete redesign of weight rooms and clubhouses.

Other upgrades visitors got to enjoy was their all-new Galaxy Gift Team Store, a renovated

Regions Bank Club, Moonshot Alley, Kinetic Loge Boxes and a Karbach Cantina to name a few. The move from independent to Triple-A baseball is estimated to generate $10 million more in economic impact per year. The Sugar Land Space Cowboys and Astros’ partnership and all the benefits that come with it will further establish Sugar Land as a city invested in its residents with a quality of life unmatched by any other suburb in the Houston metro area.
