This place is awesome, I may be a little biased as I spent a lot of my youth here but even back then it was just a community centre and a single basketball hoop.
Now there's multiple basketball hoops, athletics track, a walk along the stream, a awesome playground with plenty of variety for the kids - slides, monkeybars, fort etc.
What a wonderful place for the community.

Spacious and quiet park. Not many people comes here. Different set up compared to other parks. Good for families with children. Also have space for softball if that’s what you prefer. Highly recommended
A great place to exercise,unwind, smell the fresh air and appreciate the beauty of nature. The park has many amenities like the Lovelock Track, the City Central Baseball field, playgrounds, exercise hubs, bridges to take instagrammable photos, and a foot walk for, of course, walking and jogging.
Best place for a long walk/running. Close to Wesley community they have a race track open for public which is even awesome. Couple of big grounds for playing different sport, play area for children. They also have war memorial statue and Community Hall.
