The stadium hosted the Philadelphia Athletics, Cleveland Indians, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Kansas City Royals spring training through the years.

[4] Hall of Famers Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Roberto Clemente, Jimmy Foxx, Bob Feller, Tris Speaker, and George Brett are some of the notable players who have played at Terry Park Field.

In 1921 the local Fort Myers Terry Family donated approximately 25 acres (100,000 m2) of cow pasture to Lee County.

Amidst bulls and heifers, a small wooden grandstand seating no more than 600 fans was erected on the site about a mile east of downtown Fort Myers.

Terry Park became their spring training home for the next 14 years, before moving to Bradenton's McKechnie Field in 1969.

The main attraction was going to be the Kansas City Royals spring training home, however the deal later proved to be a bust and by 2002 the park was abandoned and later completely demolished.

Kevin Seitzer and Bret Saberhagen were members of the Fort Myers team and began their professional careers at Terry Park.

The most recent professional baseball games played at Terry Park Ballfield were June 2, 2001 Lakeland Tigers v Fort Myers Miracle (FSL) and April 30, 2006 Dunedin Blue Jays v Fort Myers Miracle (FSL).

The memorial stadium was dedicated to area resident, Park T. Pigott (1914–1972), in recognition of his lifetime of service, through sports, to the youth of this community.

For the 2003 season Terry Park was used by the Eagles of Florida Gulf Coast University while their new ballpark is being built at their Fort Myers campus.

The first was completed in 2003 by Gabriel Schechter, Research Associate, National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Later in the year, The Board of Lee County Commissioners approved a guaranteed maximum price of $701,697 for Compass Construction to tear down the old grandstand and build a new one.

Therefore, what stands at Terry Park now bears little resemblance to the original historical spring training location it once was.

In 2020, the Kia Tigers of the Korean Baseball Organisation in South Korea, managed by former Major Leaguer Matt Williams, held spring training at Terry Park, and the team stayed in Fort Myers extended by pandemic restrictions.
