8. Grand Park Facilities Contracted Use of Facilities
Rules and Regulations
Indoor Facility
Office Space
We are tenants at Grand Park – owned by City of Westfield
Just because the Event Center is also at Grand Park does not mean we are able to utilize that space when unable to practice outside (weather) is cost prohibitive.
IFJ offices now located within the Event Center – 2nd floor, south concourse opposite The Nest, 5 doors down from the Indiana Soccer Association office door.
