The City of Frederick has strict rules in place for the use of sports fields during closures. When a field is closed, all leased fields, including those located in schools, are off-limits for the duration of the closure period. It is important to note that using a closed field is strictly prohibited and can result in fines or loss of access for the season if a permitted league is found using it. Unpermitted users will receive a warning or citation if caught using a closed field.
