   Comments: Some of the fields are in pretty poor condition and need to be cleaned up in order to prevent injury.

   Comments: I do not understand that the safety of the people are not a concern. As we play on the fileds at specific times, but these fields are open and kids are playing on unsafe fields and they are my main concern and so should it be yours!

   Comments: It is imperative that all players have a safe field to play on everyday. This is supposed to be fun and it's not fair when the fields are not maintained on a daily basis. We pay good money to be in these leagues, its the least the parks department can do to ensure our safety.

   Comments: The lights don't seem to be something terribly difficult to maintain. I understand if the Parks Dept. isn't going to come out and get rid of the water after a storm because that takes effort. But not turning on lights? Ridiculous.

    Comments: I have found park maintenance in New York City to be absolutely deplorable. In addition to softball, I play other sports around the city. The fields by the water at Inwood Hill Park are outright dangerous and those at Riverside Park are unusable for a week after any amount of rain. The miserable conditions at these parks lead to injuries and discourage any competitive or athletic outlet. Please improve the maintenance of these fields!

    Comments: I am a very frustrated member of YSA for the second year now. Last year was a flawless season, and my teammates and i are just baffled with what has been going on this year. Anything you can do to get this cleaned up is greatly appreciated.

    Comments: I think minimal maintenance of the parks is not too much to ask. I would think the safety of the people who use the parks and ball fields is the Parks Department's first priority.

    Comments: It is disturbing to hear about the lack of care that many Manhattan fields receive, most notably from my experience, the fields along the east river. The standing water, uneven dirt surfaces and potholes that form around homeplate make it extremely dangerous as players are susceptible to serious injury from slipping and falling, bad bounces from ground balls and sliding in potholes. Remember that sliding is encouraged as a form of safety, but when there are potholes near the bases/homeplate, it is mentally discouraging to slide because of the risk of getting a leg jammed/twisted, which could easily cause serious bone breaks and/or cartilage tears. The City is spending a lot of money to restore and refurbish the running path/bike lanes along the east river - they've added shrubbery and benches and it looks great. Why is the City letting the ball fields become the eye sores and danger zones of the east side now?
