We decided to visit this location to get a nice low impact walk as a workout. The weather forecast…read moresaid that rain was expected so it was a quick 30-35min walk that we planned. When we approached the location, there was a co-Ed little league team ending their evening practice. There were about 5-7 cars of families packing up from the field and departing the lot. The parking lot can hold about 35-40 parked cars, with 2-3 handicap parking spots as well. The field is used by many weekend adult soccer players so Saturday and Sunday is normally jammed packed starting at 7am and ending about 6p. There are cars that line the streets in the neighborhood during this time. This recreational center is a very popular spot for little league games, adult soccer on weekends, the Neighborhood Festivals, birthday parties, recreation center clubs, and school break camps. The indoor space is rented to martial arts classes, birthday parties, baby showers, sports banquets, and other private events. The indoor space can hold about 40-50 people when they setup events. There is a half basketball court on the side of this recreational center but it is not marked up as a half court. It just has plain cement as a court, balls can be checked out from the staff when they are open. For Easter and other holidays they sometimes have special events that the City of SD Parks & Recreation Dept hosts, with our tax dollars, and they are great for the kids in the area. I especially like to see the "Teen Nights" as they offer at risk youth an opportunity to participate in meaningful and positive events. There is also free WiFi here. Overall, great location to take a walk on the field and nice place for little ones to play in the smaller playground.

Remember, this isn't a park with a huge play area (jungle gym, multiple slides, tons of swing sets, etc)- it's an athletic field. Sundays are predominately for soccer leagues accommodating different age groups. That grassy field is huge & towered by mature eucalyptus trees. The baseball diamond has a set of weathered bleachers that look like splinters are happy to poke your butt when you sit down on them. There are men/ women restrooms available. I have a longtime friend who is an official AKBC (American Kennel Bulldog Club) Judge & she has used Penn Athletic Field twice a year to host shows. The community of Paradise Hills launched it's first community gathering here in December '17- Paradise Hills Night Market- which showcased many residents/ alumni w/in the neighborhood to showcase their goods (art, food, music, etc.). Please refer to my photos to see how you can obtain field permits.

We came today, Memorial Day 2021 and no parking in the lot whatsoever. I'm roaming and waiting to get something close as I am carrying some heavy items. The baseball park seems to work for us. Fields are well kept and the staff seems to be on top of it. We traveled from about an hour and a half away. There's no bag check and it seems like we're able to bring in outside food even though there is a snack bar. We carried in while Pizzas and an ice chest and nobody harassing us to leave it in the car. I love this park! NO SEEDS NO ALCOHOL NO GUM Simple enough rules.

He stormed off field quickly approached my son with intent to fight !!!! I couldn't believe this was happening. Once face to face the umpire body checked my son ! Now we have physical contact. Pushing and shoving followed . Turns out the umpire is the Board President! Nice example Also his grandson was on the other team ?!!!! Total conflict.

I have six grandchildren who have played on these fields for almost 10 years and they love it. We do our best to keep the fields in shape, the parking lot graveled, the restrooms clean and running and ultimately make THLL a fun and safe place for players and their families. There are no dogs allowed, unfortunately some do not abide by the rules. We do our best to serve our community with kindness, fairness, and sincerity. We appreciate your support and encouragement and most of all your patience ;)

I was born and raised in a…read more"ghetto" neighborhood so I can handle the sketchy local shenanigans but what I can't handle is broken glass in the sand. Of course unsupervised parks will lend itself to underage gang activity, drugs, and alcohol consumption during certain hours but not 24/7. I've seen the same trash and the same broken glass perpetuate in the same spots for days. PARK MAINTENANCE: Please get it together! Another big turn off is the homeless camp situation. This wouldn't bother me so much if it weren't for all the beers, cigarette butts, and rivers of piss. I walked a lap around the park with my dog and I was worried about all the boogeymen laying about. Also, like some have mentioned, this park does not carry poop bags so you have to bring your own. I wish this park was safer and cleaner because I live down the street and I was looking forward to walking at a park without having to drive out.

They all glared at me like I stepped in the wrong hood; maybe because I'm 30 years younger than the average demographic. These seniors get down for free rations lol. Be sure to like up well before they release at 12:30pm. It's nice and air conditioned inside and very roomy. The food is trash, but it's free and you don't exactly come where for fine dining haha. The park itself is cool. It's good for outdoor parties and events. I remember coming here as a kid and picking up a $5 bill (which was a lot for a kid in the 90's) that a lady dropped and got hella ice cream from the ice cream man haha.

I had a picnic here on Sunday. I noticed other families did too. There are about a half dozen…read morepicnic shelters, and several picnic tables that are un sheltered. The lawn is spacious, giving room for the little ones to run and play. There's a play structure they can play on too. A sidewalk skirts the perimeter of the lawn, making it a bit more accessible for folks with wheelchairs, canes, or walkers. Speaking or wheelchairs, I did see one round table that has room for a wheelchair. The restrooms, while not the cleanest in San Diego, were far from the dirtiest. It would have been nice to have toilet paper in the stall. Fortunately, it was not needed as I know this happens a lot in San Diego parks and I plan accordingly. There were dog walkers, and Frisbee tossers. I didn't see any kite flying though there is space for it. Over all a nice park to bring the family.
