The city council officially approved the name change for the field today. It has been a long and heavy road to get here but seeing his name up there will make it all worth it. We finally have a permanent place to remember him together.

Brock Powell was a young man who touched many lives. While his time with us was short, he made sure to make his time count. Although he gave his all to everything he did, many us will never forget watching him play baseball. In fact, it will be difficult to ever watch a game at the Jourdanton Sports Complex without thinking of him.

The entire Powell family has always been known for their contributions to the youth of Jourdanton. Doesn't matter if its coaching a team, serving on the board, or being a sponsor, the impacts of the entire family have always been appreciated no matter what the sport. Lets make it impossible not to remember Brock while watching a game at the complex.

Help us petition the City of Jourdanton to official name one of the fields at the Jourdanton Sports Complex the Brock Powell Field. The Jourdanton Little League will attempt to present this petition to the Jourdanton City Council at the December meeting.

Help us leave a legacy, the same way Brock left a legacy on us.

Brock represented everything that we try to instill in kids through sports. He shared more than the ball during sports, he shared his spirit and zeal for the game he shared his laughter and he shared a great attitude. What an honor it will be for your city and kids of future generations to be able to play on a field named after him.

My husband did a job for his parents. He said Brock had a beautiful spirit about him. Sadly, I never had the chance to meet him , but i still believe he deserves this honor.

Brocks face when he went up to the plate always had the biggest and amazing smile on it. This out be a great tribute to him and his family. We have to keep him alive through our children. This is going to help his family cope w/ their loss. Please strongly consider this.

Generations of family behind this young man. Strived to give his all and do his best. No mater what he was involved in, school, church, stock show, rasing animals sports both at home and organized. If the sport did not allow him to play he helped others. He encouraged others to give their all. By all means one of the fields should be named in his honor.

Absolutely agree! The Powell’s have always been great supporters of the Jourdanton Little League and our community. Brock maintained his smile despite having battled more than many adults. What an incredible way to honor him!

One of my cherished memories is of Brock sitting next to me at the baseball field helping me keep score. It was almost as though he new I was lost as to what to do with the foul/ball count. He came up and sat next to me and with that smile and I was hooked. Ever time I walk up to that field I will forever remember that sweet boy sitting next to me giving me(an adult) support. What a kid
