The Athletics Division is responsible for coordinating the sports league activities. All sports leagues are run by private organizations within the City of Parkland that utilize City fields. This division also issues short term permits for residents to utilize City fields for non-sports league activities. In addition to the sports leagues, the Athletics Division manages the tennis program at Quigley Park. This program is provided on a contractual basis with the goal of offering a variety of tennis programs and events for all abilities and levels of play and to present a professional tennis support staff in a clean and well-organized facility. The City also provides concession items as well as courteous customer service during peak operating hours.
