Athletic Fields Temporarily Closed

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 3/17/2026 12:18 pm

WORCESTER, Mass. – The Department of Parks, Recreation & Cemetery has announced that athletic fields will be temporarily closed. 

As we transition out of winter, the fields need time to dry out and undergo seasonal cleanup to ensure they are safe and ready for sports activities. 

For the safety of everyone, and to protect the playing surfaces, fields should not be used until they have officially reopened. An announcement will be made when the fields are officially reopened.
