Werner Park is a minor league ballpark in eastern Nebraska, the home of the Omaha Storm Chasers (the Triple A affiliate of Major League Baseball's Kansas City Royals) and USL League One professional soccer club Union Omaha. The University of Nebraska Omaha Mavericks also occasionally used the stadium for some home college baseball games.
Opened in 2011, the ballpark cost $36 million to construct. It is located along state highway 370 just east of South 126th Street, in an unincorporated area less than three miles (5 km) west of downtown Papillion, a suburb southwest of Omaha in Sarpy County, which owns the venue.[3]
