Amherst softball fields
Groff Park is south of the center of town on Mill Valley Road, off Rte 116, otherwise known as South Pleasant St. or West St. Go past Amherst College, down the hill about a mile. At the bottom of the hill there is a traffic light at Mill Valley Rd west. Go beyond the light, turn left on Mill Valley east, you'll see the park in about 100 yds. The lower field is Field 2, go in the main entrance to park for Field 2. For Field 1, go past the main entrance to the upper softball field, you can park on the edge of the road. Fort River School is east of the center of town. Go east on Main St. to the traffic light at the East Amherst Common (North East St.), turn right (south) on East St. toward Rte 9, the school is on your left. The first entrance is one way the wrong way for cars, the entrance you can use is at the south end of the common. As you go in, Field 3 is the first one on your right, Field 1 is the main field with bleachers and light poles, Field 2 is behind the school, mostly out of sight from the entrance drive. Hint about parking: we have had players who have hit home runs through windshields of cars parked on the edge of the Field 3 left field, I would suggest choosing a parking space closer to the school.The schedule for all teams, as well as scores of all games, is available on the LSSE website.
