Yep, the wise leaders of Dallas think having your kids play over an old landfill of god knows what is a good idea....

The fields are crowned and elevated. I heard that water drains down hill, but I don't know for sure. I'm not a genius.

Some folk are never happy.
Funny thing is Dallas Cup played most of their games there, not a peep about anything negative.

Not a peep huh, guess the kids I saw holding their noses and looking like they were grossed out were a figment of my imagination , or the smell that was like a rotting fish slapping you was too. Yep, some of us just aren't satisfied playing in landfill, we are funny that way...

I believe you. I have been lots of times and didn't experience it though. Does anyone know caused this ISOLATED incident? Did the flash flooding make the landfill smell like a landfill? Was the wind blowing in from a different direction?

Moss park, UTD and Richland are state of the art and will do.

Re: Money gram aka funky stink park..
Several tournaments have been played there.
Primetime will be playing league games there as well starting this fall.
Seem fairly busy out there.

Lol, were you on the planning commission for this park? Here come the enabler excuses. I'm sure Go99 will be here soon with his excuses...

I don't know if Friday, Saturday and Sunday can be called isolated. The smell was a a big issue on an otherwise nice new facility. The traffic light at 35 and Walnut Hill will need some tinkering on game days... Maybe the smell will be a one weekend only situation. I heard Boys Classic League will play there in the Fall as well. If you're playing on the fields next to a slope, make sure your coach has an extra game ball at mid-field to keep play going...

Yes if it had been a World Cup game, they would have added at least 5 minutes to the game for ball chasing down that hill. Having a spare ball to swap was key, especially for the U10 division which was 20 min halves for the Friday night games...Coach wrote:And what genius puts fields 1 and 5 right next to a steep hill so that every ball that goes out on the hill side takes 10 minutes to chase down.

Crowned and elevated for drainage are one thing. Playing on the side of a mountain is another.
Fields were in good shape and I did not notice a smell.
