OUR MISSION
Our mission is to create a unique, fun, and safe environment for outdoor activity. We designed and built the Sports Park for the love of our community and the games we all play. The goal is to provide high-quality, well-run recreational facilities for the greater Upper Valley community. We created a facility where you can play year-round and enjoy multiple sports on the turf or on the sport court - in the day or night!
OUR FOUNDERS
The Sports Park in Lebanon, New Hampshire owes its inception to the visionary collaboration of three dedicated individuals: Dan, Ben, and Bill. Rooted in the tight-knit Upper Valley sports community, we bring a wealth of experience and passion to the project. With a commitment to fostering athletic excellence and community engagement, we created a premier sports facility that not only caters to the diverse sporting interests of the region but also serves as a hub for fostering a sense of camaraderie and healthy competition. Our deep ties to the local sports scene underscore our understanding of the unique needs and aspirations of the Upper Valley community, making the Sports Park a testament to our shared vision and dedication to enhancing the sporting landscape in Lebanon, NH.
