I visited Spalding Park for a basketball session with Alex, Ritvik, and Shantiv. We decided to test a new park instead of outdoor courts at the ARC.
Spalding Park was adjacent to a sports complex and school. It had plentiful parking and was quite lively. There was a baseball practice going on, a basketball game, and some people at the skate park.
Open area for frisbee, etc.
The skate park was a very unique feature of the park.

The tennis courts were very busy the entire time I was there.
Spalding park has very nice, lit tennis courts and a baseball field
The basketball court was acceptable. We played AP + RA vs SS + AG, AP + RA taking a best of three series 2-1.

Overall, Spalding Park was nice. Next time, I'll stop by King Park and Hazel Park on the way. I noticed Hazel Park does have basketball hoops as well, so we might play there next.
