Fenway South

Fenway South is the Player Development Complex and Spring training base of the Boston Red Sox in Fort Myers, Florida.

The purpose-built training and player development complex will be used year-round by the Red Sox and its minor league farm teams — Pawtucket Red Sox, Portland Sea Dogs, Salem Red Sox, Greenville Drive, and Lowell Spinners — and includes an 11,000-seat stadium and an additional six baseball fields together with training and medical facilities. As the spring training home of Red Sox it replaces nearby City of Palms Park.

The stadium within Fenway South is called jetBlue Park, through sponsorship by JetBlue Airways, which has maintained major operations at Boston's Logan International Airport since 2004.

It was officially opened by the Lee County Board of Commissioners and the Red Sox on February 25, 2012.

There are six baseball training fields and two soccer fields in the complex, available year-round by the Red Sox and their farm clubs. Baseball field No. 1 has the same field dimensions as jetBlue park and Fenway Park. Fields 1, 2, and 4 are set in the same direction as jetBlue park, with 3,4,5, and 6 sharing a backstop facility.

The complex is served via a private road from the local Fire Department station (Lee County #64).

The Red Sox's lease on City of Palms Park with Fort Myers ran through 2019, however team ownership exercised an early out in the contract that allowed them to leave following the 2009 spring season. Chief operating officer Mike Dee met with Sarasota officials on April 25, 2008 to discuss the possibility of the Red Sox moving to Sarasota's Ed Smith Stadium once its current spring inhabitants, the Cincinnati Reds, move to their new spring home in Goodyear, Arizona.
