Locate TUC Fields
This list is obsolete! Field information should now come from the Zuluru field list. This page will remain here until all of our summer field data has been entered into the system.
The fields are listed in alphabetical order by region, in accordance with our geographical plan. The Toronto regions are defined as: north of Eglinton Ave., south of Wilson Ave./York Mills Rd./Ellesmere Rd., east of Bathurst St., and west of Leslie St., but still within the boundaries of Metro Toronto. Since the regions are designed to overlap each other, some fields will be listed more than once. For your convenience, TTC directions are highlighted in Red Rocket Red. We may also be adding biking directions.
If you are familiar with a particular field and have recommendations for improvements to the suggested routes, parking areas or field layouts, please send them to webmaster@tuc.org. More accurate information here will translate into your teammates and opponents being more likely to be on time for your games.
