Athletic Field Reservations

• You must have a permit to use “game only” fields in regional or recreational parks.
• Local park fields (for practice/game) don’t require a permit, but get first priority for permit-holders.
• Permits are issued on a first-come, first-served basis.

Sports Leagues and Organizations:

Some leagues/organizations get “priority use” contracts each season if they meet the eligibility criteria. Visit our Athletic Field Use Permit Policy to see if your group is considered a priority user group.

Priority Use Contracts will be sent to the primary account holder no later than January 5th for the spring/summer season, June 15 for the fall season, and November 1 for the winter season. Contracts will not be issued if there is an outstanding balance in the account.

If someone else is using your reserved space, show them your permit and ask them to leave. If there is an emergency or a serious issue that affects your use of the space, call Park Police (non-emergency) at 301-949-8010. This includes problems like maintenance issues, cleanliness, heating/air conditioning, plumbing, or similar concerns. For School and Department of Recreation Fields, call CUPF (Community Use of Public Facilities) after hours: 240-490-2873.
