Kirkwood Park — Attraction in Kirkwood

So this review is not really about the park itself but more about the Softball League that is ran up there. Been playing in the Sunday Night double header league for 3 years now and it's never been great but now it's not even fun anymore. There are so many ridiculous rules in the league that you feel like you need to take a 101 class to understand how to play there. They also don't take care of the fields at all.
