Missoula sports teams and Parks and Recreation share a common goal: safe, high-quality athletic turf for games and tournaments. Preserving sports fields in the shoulder seasons can be a challenge for your team's practice schedule, but it's necessary to ensure fields are ready for competitive play.
We appreciate your patience and efforts in preserving athletic turf before its growing season begins. This page is intended to help inform sports organizations and residents about how the Department considers data in order to safely open fields.
All other City sports fields are open.
Prior to opening sports fields for reservations, Missoula Parks and Recreation uses the criteria listed below. These criteria were developed from overall best management practices for turf management in our region. These benchmarks must be met in order to ensure safe and sustainable turf grass.
