Windsor Sports Fields Opening Delayed Due to Rainy Conditions

Despite the Parks Department having pre-season maintenance completed on all of the City’s ball diamonds, Mother Nature is calling for a rain delay this weekend.  Due to the rain and saturated conditions, all City of Windsor sports fields will remain closed.

Officials warn that playing on the fields in these conditions could cause significant damage. The rain has also interfered with the final touches scheduled for this week, such as a final turf cut, re-grooming of the diamonds and line painting.

The condition of all baseball fields, which were scheduled to open this weekend, will be reassessed on Monday, and the rest of the City’s sports fields, which were scheduled to open at the end of next week, will be evaluated as well.

For questions about booking specific sport fields, please call Jim Golab, Seasonal and Sport Facilitator, at 519-253-2300 ext. 2714.
