Field Information
Accessibility:
Many soccer fields located at schools and public parks may present accessibility challenges for spectators who use wheelchairs, canes, walkers, or scooters. These fields often have uneven terrain, lack paved pathways, or do not have designated accessible viewing areas, which can make it difficult to navigate and enjoy the game. We understand the importance of ensuring a welcoming experience for all fans. If you or someone you are with requires assistance or specific accommodations to access a soccer field, please contact us for more information. We are committed to helping you find the best way to enjoy the match.
Parking:
There are over 2,000 youth players in the Rec Program!
- Parking at both practice and game venues is limited and likely to be crowded. Traffic is moving THROUGH the parking lots at all times.
- Follow all signs and directional arrows.
- Do not drop your player off in the parking lot. Park your car and escort the player to the field.
- Respect the No Parking areas and any area with traffic cones.
- Do not block service areas or other vehicles. (Not even for “just 2 minutes!”)
- Do not park on the grass.
- For additional parking notes, please review our parking rules.
Field & Goal Safety
- A parent or designated adult guardian that provides transportation for the player must remain onsite at all times. Players may not be dropped off.
- It is the parent or guardian’s responsibility to watch children during practices, games or anytime you are on the field.
- Goal safety is very important! Please talk to your children about the dangers of hanging on the goals and nets. Children die each year from goals flipping over on top of them.
- Goals are HEAVY but not heavy enough to be used as monkey bars! If you see a child hanging on a goal please STOP THEM IMMEDIATELY.
- Siblings need to be monitored on the playground equipment at all times.
