Confirmed from Founders Sports Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
This 101-acre recreational facility offers 22 sports fields & courts from soccer to shuffleboard.
What runners say about Founders Sports Park
“Bathroom facilities in the ice rink are clean (I would not use the potter John or the park bathrooms).”
Summer ☀️ time ☀️ ⏲️ 😎 ✨️ at the park. The family 👪 ❤️ decided we would make some more time for picnics in the park. What a great 👍 idea 💡 👏 😀. We've been here several times ⏲️ 😀 👏 already. We've enjoyed 😉 😀 😄 ☺️ 😎 😊 several picnics and the nature trails 👣 as well.
So many things to do here including a skate park, disc golf, ice rinks, soccer, baseball, and who knows what else. Frequented by walkers as well. If you walk the disc golf course watch yourselves and be polite to those playing.
Great urban park for Farmington for sports, baseball diamonds, soccer fields, skate park, disc golf, walking paths, fishing, picnic area, play area with playsets and swing sets.
This is a great park it has multiple sand volleyball courts, soccer field, basketball hoops and a nice concrete skatepark great for skateboarding. Good place to go train or even go for a walk after work, lot of green areas to just sit and chill. Multiple parking spaces as well.
