I’ll give credit where credit is due :
1) Georgia soccer park - nicest fields in the state
2) Fowler’s new turf fields up top
3) Allen creek or Henry county
Alternate - Franklin gateway

Does GA Soccer Park have bathrooms & concessions yet? I know they were building something last time we were there, but I haven't heard if it is finished. If those are there and available then I would say the park is at the top. If they still aren't available then they wouldn't make the top 3 list for me.
GA Soccer Park
Fowler Park
Mud Creek Park
If I drop GA Soccer Park then I would move McCurry Park into the top 3.

Is there any grass on the fields at North Mt Carmel park? Last several times we were there, the fields were in horrible shape. Nice complex though if some time and money were spent on field maintenance.

Maybe I'm thinking of the other one down there.. lovejoy? |

The problem with Mt Carmel is taking the $$$ for tournaments. They host both Concorde tournaments and now the GSA December tournament there. Too much use + rain, they're toast. There should be a caveat. Top 3 turf complexes and top 3 grass complexes. Turf: MOBA (stadium seating + full-size field) Franklin Gateway (full size fields) ?? Grass: No idea, are there any really good ones? Maybe AFC?
IMG but thats not local I would put GSP, but every time I've been its a soggy/trudgey mess |

1. Fowler Park 2. Allen Creek 3. (I can't recall this particular park but I think it was a NASA place. Parking lot was gravel and most of the fields were turf. As you walked to the back of the park (turf fields to the left and right) there is a concession stand that served the best bratwurst style food you could possible find at a concession stand). Then you kept gping and down a hill in the back were some grass fields. Dang , but I can't remember the name of that place? It was either NASA or SSA but I think it was NASA. My daughter got bitten in the arm on a corner kick against TopHat (perfect teeth imprints)  if anyone knows let me know. I always liked that place. Seems like it was just east of 285 bypass off one of those exits (Ashford Dunwoody, Northside) and you go away from 285 then take a left. It seems like we crossed the River and the road that led to the park was on the left. ** GSA North has an awesome setup if their grass fields didn't stay so torn up. |

You’re thinking Metro North in East Cobb, it’s a NASA field. |

IMG but thats not local I would put GSP, but every time I've been its a soggy/trudgey mess North Mt Carmel does do all those tournaments but those field are rarely used during the season. AFU South (Henry County United/Thunder) use them and they barely have enough teams to justify 3 fields let alone 14 full size fields. . |
