We will be using the Upper Outdoor Soccer Field. The field is fenced on all sides & there is no access to the field except by one entrance gate.

You will be able to drive up the laneway to the field gate (but no further) to unload your gear. Please unload quickly and then go park so that other competitors can access the laneway to unload

There is no vehicle access to the field & NO PARKING on the field or at field side. You must park in the parking lot.

There is no access to electricity or water so please bring whatever you need for your dogs comfort.

We will have baby pools with water for the dogs to cool off in.
