Sports Fields and Ball Diamonds Are Closing for the Season

Fields and Diamonds are now closed for the season with the exception of the following which will remain open until October 30.

  • Centennial Field 8
  • Eastview 1 – 4
  • Guelph Lakes
  • Larry Pearson

Sportsfields are inspected daily, Monday to Friday, and closure notice is made by 2 p.m. If rain begins after 2 p.m., or on the weekend, please use due diligence and responsibility by not using the fields. Notify Facility Bookings staff before the end of the next business day. 

When it rains, soil becomes saturated which can make it dangerous for participants and damage facilities. If sports fields are damaged and repairs are necessary, it might mean an extended closure until the field is fixed and safe for play. We may not be able to provide groups with an alternate facility during a field closure. It is in everyone’s best interest to ensure that fields are not used if play will damage the turf.  

Groups who continue to play on closed or wet fields:

  • May be charged and invoiced at the full unsubsidized rate;
  • May be held responsible for the cost of the field repairs and any resulting lost revenues;
  • And may have their facility contracts revoked.
