Mayor Frank Brocato invited sports fans to attend the Southeastern Conference baseball tournament in Hoover May 20–25 at the newly renovated Hoover Mets Stadium, saying the event will feature a 16-team, single-elimination format and include teams from Oklahoma and Texas.
The announcement said the tournament coincides with the completion of the final phase of a three-part renovation at the stadium. The mayor highlighted upgraded seating, an updated concourse, a third-base club suite and a light-filled viewing deck, and said the event will include an SEC Baseball Fan Fest with food, music and family activities that is free and open to the public.
"There has never been a better time to catch the action. It's more than a tournament. It's a Hoover tradition," Mayor Frank Brocato said in the announcement.
The mayor described this year's tournament as "bigger than ever" because of the 16-team, win-or-go-home format and noted the inclusion of teams from Oklahoma and Texas as a first for the event in Hoover. The announcement emphasized family-friendly programming at the Fan Fest but did not specify ticketing, broadcast or detailed scheduling information.
Officials did not provide funding or operational details for the stadium renovations during the announcement. The statement focused on amenities and the public event schedule rather than financial or permitting specifics.
