Fields Status
The City of Powell maintains several sports fields year-round through out the community. In order to make sure the fields are safe and in playable conditions, our Parks staff conducts weekly field inspections from September – April. As our region is prone to significant weather related events (rain, wind, snow, freezing conditions) we may choose to close some fields to prevent further damage from occurring.
Did you know? Organized groups, gatherings, and events in our parks, trails or fields are required to obtain a Permit through our booking application process. This process can identify potential conflicts when users are trying to organize activities in the same place for the same time.
Let us help you find the right space for your event! To book one of our many facilities, please contact our Booking Clerk directly at 604 485-8909 or via email at bookings@powellriver.ca
FIELD INSPECTION REPORT
October 9th
Most fields are in great shape with a few soft spots from last week’s rain. I have closed 2 fields at JP Dallos to encourage user groups to rotate between the 5 options as it appears that the same 2 are getting used every week and a lot of wear and tear has resulted. Attached are the maps for JP Dallos and Sunset showing the field numbers for youth soccer this season.
Soccer groups, please remember to slide the nets back after use to avoid killing the grass and consider rotating fields when possible to give the goal mouths a break. And as always, please reschedule if we have torrential rains, saturated field conditions, frost or snow-covered fields.

Thank you for your assistance.
