Sports Fields and Courts

Whether you are looking for a baseball diamond or a soccer field, Wilmot has many sports fields to choose from. Sports fields are located on both school properties and in community parks, and are available for use on a seasonal basis.

Conditions and Closures

Sports fields are open for the season.

Conditions are updated on this page by 4 pm daily during times of bad weather.

To ensure user safety, please do not use the field if:

  • The Township has closed a field due to poor user conditions or bad weather 
  • A field is deemed unsafe to play by referees, umpires, or coaches, but may not have been closed by the Township as conditions may have worsened after 4:00 p.m. 

If a field is closed by the Township of Wilmot, any bookings that you may have at that location will be removed from your contract and an amendment showing the change will be emailed to you. In order to remove your unused booking from your contract, you must contact the facility scheduler by the following morning.

Artificial Turf Field

Waterloo-Oxford District Secondary School is home to the first artificial turf field within the Township of Wilmot. The field is operated in partnership with the Waterloo Region District School Board and the Township of Wilmot. The fully lit playing surface serves the students of Waterloo-Oxford as well as the residents of the Township for football, soccer, field hockey and rugby, and will allow for a longer playing season – April to November, dependent on field and weather conditions.
