Everyone needs a good local park nearby where they can take the whole family for a day out. For anyone who lives in the North Ryde area, and Sportsgrounds/Find a Park or Sportsground/ is just that place.



Located just off Kent Road, this huge park has a little bit of everything to keep the whole family occupied. First on the list of the park's features is the excellent kids' playground found near the park entrance. This is always a popular spot and has swings, slides, a jungle gym and plenty of other things to climb.

Right next to the play equipment are a few barbecues and picnic tables, making it the ideal spot to cook up a barbecue lunch and sit down for a feast. Several other benches and picnic tables are sprinkled throughout the park.



ELS Hall is also home to three sportsfields. Depending on the time of year they play host to soccer, baseball, cricket and Aussie Rules, and the fields are generally considered to be some of the best in the local area. When there's no organised sport being played there, these fields are popular with joggers and walkers looking to work up a sweat.



Towards the top end of the park is a walking track that winds its way around a circuit dotted with outdoor fitness equipment. It's a good spot to give yourself a bit of a workout without having to fork out any gym fees.

A section of the park is actually a designated Leash .pdf off-leash area , so it's not uncommon on any given afternoon to see a few local dogs frolicking in the grass.



Toilets are available at the fairly new Ryde Community Sports Centre, where you can also sign up for indoor sports competitions including soccer, futsal, basketball, netball, touch footy and volleyball.

If you want to explore the local area, sits adjacent to the Shrimpton's Creek pedestrian/cycleway, a shared user path that takes you through bushland to nearby Macquarie Park.
