Artificial Turf Fields – Lum and Shunpike Field

As a joint venture of the Borough of Chatham, the Township of Chatham and the Chatham Athletic Foundation, its critical we protect these investments for our community to enjoy. Having these artificial turf fields available for our programs, especially with the wet weather, has allowed us to continue our weekly sessions as scheduled.

The Coaches/Trainers have asked that we please relay to families these items below as they organize sessions:
Families are requested to please watch their child’s session from the adjacent grassed areas or behind the fence.
Animals are not permitted on the artificial turf fields.
Spectators, if they attend and want to play catch, etc. with their families, are requested to play off the field and not on the turf.
