The Bobbie Bailey Athletic Complex is the home of the two-time NCAA national champion Owls and is widely considered one of the premiere softball facilities in the southeast. The complex, which is home to historic Owl Field, opened on February 7, 2004 with a 3-2 come from behind win over Tusculum. The facility is named for Dr. M.

The complex is complete with seating for nearly 750 and features a first-class club and press area located behind home plate. Fan friendly with excellent sight lines, the complex has a first-rate concession area and a fan pavilion located directly behind home plate with picnic tables. <hr width="100%"> <b>Bobbie Bailey Complex< b> <img border="0" src="images bailey 01.jpg" align="right">Along with Stillwell Stadium, the Bobby Bailey Complex serves as the home for Kennesaw State Softball.
