Coronation Park

Google Map City of Toronto Parks Web Site

Diamond #1 is the farthest east (near the pavilion / washroom).

There is no parking on Lake Shore Boulevard. There is pay parking on Remembrance Drive, which is one way from the corner of Lake Shore Boulevard and Strachan Avenue; it comes back out onto Lake Shore at the Tip Top Lofts. There may also be parking on the north side of Lake Shore Boulevard, except during the CNE.

Ground rules:
To be determined.

Dovercourt Park

Kew Gardens Park

Google Map City of Toronto Parks Web Site

There is paid parking along Queen, an off-street lot at Queen and Lee, and street parking along Lee and the neighbouring streets. The diamond is tucked away on the east side of the park, down towards the tennis courts. Traffic on Queen can be very slow so allow lots of time to reach the park and find parking.

Ground rule:
"Out-of-play" down the left field line - usually we use "extension of the backstop", but that would bring a piece of the bleachers into play further down the line so we will use the extension of the back-stop out to the in-field edge of the sidewalk in front of the bleachers, then along the edge of the sidewalk, then the line of trees parallel to the third base line.

Riverdale Park West

Google Map City of Toronto Parks Web Site

Park at the eastern end of Carlton St (which takes a slight jog north at Parliament) and walk down the hill on the path to the southeast diamond, near Bayview Ave. We play on diamonds #1 (NE corner, good diamond), #2 (middle diamond on east side (Bayview), not-so-good diamond), #3 (SE corner, good diamond); we are not using #4 (west side at bottom of path/stairs, not-so-good diamond).

Ground rules for diamond #1:
To be determined.

Ground rules for diamond #2:
Watch out for garbage cans in the outfield. It is also suggested to extend the 'home safe line' outside the backstop, and have runners go outside to avoid the catcher and the confined area inside the backstop.

Ground rule for diamond #3:
Any hit, in the air or on the ground, over or past the guard rail in left field is a double.

Ground rules for diamond #4:
Any hit, in the air or on the ground, over or onto the road/path in right field is a double. It is also suggested to extend the 'home safe line' outside the backstop, and have runners go outside to avoid the catcher and the confined area inside the backstop.

The park is on the west side of Walnut Ave., which is between Bathurst St. and Strachan Ave.; the diamond is south of King St. Note that Walnut Ave. is one-way northbound from Wellington St. to Richmond St.; Walnut Terrace, which is on the west side of the park, is one-way southbound from Richmond St. to at least King St.

There is some parking on Walnut Ave.

Trinity-Bellwoods Park

Google Map City of Toronto Parks Web Site

Note that Gorevale Avenue is one-way southbound, from Dundas.
We play on the north diamond (#1, closest to Dundas St., behind the hockey rink / change house, not directly on Gorevale), on the middle diamond (#2, north-most of the two directly on Gorevale, about midway between Dundas and Queen, has the ravine / crater in right field), and on the south diamond (#3, closest to Queen St. of the two directly on Gorevale, which does NOT have the ravine / crater in the outfield).

Ground rule for diamond #1 (NW of the hockey rink on Gorevale):
Any hit, in the air or on the ground, past the path is a double.

Ground rule for diamond #2 (north diamond of the two on Gorevale):
Any hit, in the air or on the ground, to the right of the second large tree in right-center field that goes past the path is a double.

Ground rule for diamond #3 (south diamond of the two on Gorevale):
Any hit, in the air or on the ground, to the left of the second large tree in left-center field that goes past the path is a double. It is also suggested to extend the 'home safe line' outside the backstop, and have runners go outside to avoid the catcher and the confined area inside the backstop.

Withrow Park

Google Map City of Toronto Parks Web Site

The diamond is near the SW corner (on the Logan Ave side of the park).

Ground rules:
Any hit to the right of the lamp post in center field onto the road in the air is a home run.
Any hit to the right of the lamp post in center field onto the road on the ground is a double.
The outfield to the left of the lamp post in center field has no ground rule.
It is doubtful the bases can be placed at 60 feet and remain in the infield; the bases should be placed in the infield, as close to the grass as teams deem safe.
