Unfortunately the stadium is technically closed due to COVID but there are plenty of people using the track. Someone from Parks and Rec even came and cleaned the trash up and didnt say anything to anyone working out there.I love this track although it is definitely time for it to be redone. The track itself is worn down and there are places where it is completely cracked and destroyed. I hope they repair it soon.They seem to be continuing with the work on the actual recreational center although it seems to be an EXTREMELY slow process. Its going to be nice when its finally completed.

There for a football game. Must enter on the back side (Exposition) to the big parking lot due to the construction. However, this is a really cool park. Football fields, baseball diamond, swimming pool, walking tracks and gym for basketball that is under construction. Really nice area. Close to supermarkets and expo Line train.

Love this underrated park. When all the construction is done it should be a premier recreation location. You got Jackie Robinson stadium, the Basketball gym (reconstruction), the baseball fields, the soccer field, the outside baskellball courts, the tennis center & courts, the skate park, the child care center, the playground, the picnic areas and the swimming pool. I have swam at the pool since I was kid and still do many decades later. The pool is my secret for rehabilitation, water meditation, & longevity. Dont tell nobody.

Great place for tennis, football, soccer, and baseball, with a lighted track thats great for evening walks !!!! The basketball courts needs some attention. Cant wait until the gymnasium is completed, it will be a valuable asset to the community.

Speaking of the parking lot and turf field quality... The parking lot has needed to be repaved for many years now. Deep pot holes on the baseball field side are rough on your tires and suspension. The field turf is hard on your body if you are doing extended play on it. Its overall not bad but not great by any stretch.

Indoor pool, lots of tennis courts, playground, and sports fields. Great rec center thats also undergoing construction to become better. Not much parking right now due to the construction.

My review is purely on the football field and surrounding amenities -The park is currently under large scale renovation, so its hard to knock it as they obviously are working on improving the facilities, so Im looking forward to that, but I feel like the existing space could be monitored more closely in regards to security. Im specifically referring to the restrooms by the field and the north parking lot. I understand its a public park, so Im not commenting on the quality of the facilities as Im sure those are next to be remodeled. But I feel like the restrooms never have lighting which can be sketchy considering they are frequented by many transients and other folks who are clearly doing drugs and hanging around the area. There are a lot of children who have football practice and other intermural sports that go on here and having closely monitored facilities would make the place much safer. This also goes for the parking lots which are very dimly lit.Like I said, I understand renovations are happening so improvements are coming shortly, but maybe some lighting and security would definitely help a lot in the meantime. Otherwise, I think the field is great and love the new street name, Obama Blvd.

Baseball fields have holes for days Regardless of what some may say. I love the energy on the field though folks are generally nice. They are doing alot of construction work so front parking lot is jacked the hell up back lot is usually flooded when it rains plus the many many many many potholes, be very care when driving in, plus the homeless encampment at the back entrance. Beware of the various folks smoking crack in the bathrooms if the bathrooms are even open and when they are its pretty much enter if you dare. If there is a game or function going on then most likely bathrooms are somewhat clean until they are not. Do not leave or even bring valuable items in your car for sure, make sure they are not visible.

Local community track and field. I meet my running club there every Saturday mornings for our workouts. Plenty of space for multiple groups to get there works on. Walkers are usually on the tracks. Peewee football is back. That usually takes over by 8:30.There is also Celeste swimming pool, a basketball gym, baseball field and a tennis courts available. Not sure if there is a fee for classes. Ample free parking unless there is an event going on.

Every since I was a kid they have had a summer camp program which Ive been in when I was about 10. I had so much fun I remember. Growing up here every summer. I definitely had to take advantage of there swimming pool. Also they have sports leagues, basketball, flag football, La Jets track, baseball and proably a swim team now to, I would expect. Very nice place to raise a child and to keep he or she active.

I love this recreation center although the recent construction or lack thereof has been annoying bc it has taken away a majority of the parking usually available. It doesnt seem as though they are making any progress on the new facility that is supposed to be built there.

The fields could use a little more attention. There is construction going on leaving the place pretty dirty and with limited parking. It has the distinction of having the nastiest restroom Ive ever seen. In the end, just average at best.

Great park. Has lots of activities, but not well cared for. Needs lots of TLC. You can take tennis lessons, swim lessons; basketball and baseball lessons for kids. Theres a tartan track to jog on and a soccer field. Theres lots of homeless people at night. Managers need to clean up after them and patrons.

I was posted in the parking lot Sunday 09/09/18 cleaning out my car. I couldnt go to Kenneth Hann as they charge for entering the park on the weekends. Smdh.. So I chose this one as it was more open for parking.. Seems like a nice park as the kids had a softball game going on.
