Good local park within the residential area, and, within a walking distance, it's so convenient for those who live nearby. One full size soccer field is located here and is home to a club, and there is one toilet block. There is a water bubbler and bottle refill found near the playground as well as a shaded picnic table.

Basic local park with the added of bonus of public restrooms. Playground equipment in good condition, rubber surface recently installed and shades for the hotter months. If you live locally, it's handy for a quick late afternoon play to burn off some energy before dinner.
