The city's municipal code allows ball games and sports only at the places and times the Parks and Recreation Department designates, and lets it give organized teams exclusive use of an area; the center's page publishes no rule on using its fields without a permit. (docs.sandiego.gov, Oct 15)

Soccer: The city says the park hosts soccer among its activities, and the center runs youth soccer in spring; it lists a lighted multipurpose field. (sandiego.gov, Oct 15)
