Murdoch Park

An amazing shared space for Papatoetoe AFC Soccer Club and the general public. The fields are great for exercise as it is spacious and very clean and frequently looked after. It does get heavily used by the club on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for training and game days so I would recommend staying away on those middays and afternoons as it can get crowded.

Number 1 Football pitch is excellent and well maintained. Number 2 pitch unfortunately is neglected. Played on it yesterday and with slightest rain one half the north end turns into a muddy boggy quagmire. The goal post are well past their use by date badly rusted and rough. The pitch has lots random bumps and holes. Needs a good heavy roller roll. Time to put in some descent drainage and sand base. Fix big hole on linesman run on south east side pitch its an ankle breaker.

Needs to be re painted and toilets should be open whenever teams have practice

Great field for sports and walking in the evening.

Average field. Clubrooms alright. They had 10c lollies which was pretty cool though.
