Athletic Facility Usage Policy

The Town of Jupiter’s new Athletic Facility Usage Policy recognizes the value of balancing the needs of Jupiter residents in accessing the Town's athletic facilities with the needs of other organizations that may need to use the fields for practices. The policy establishes time when the Town's athletic facilities are available for free use by Town residents and creates a tiered system for reserving facilities to further benefit those programs aimed at Town residents. 

The policy applies to all potential users of Town athletic facilities, including residents, Town-run programs, youth sports organizations, travel teams, tournament organizers and non-residents.

Additional Fee Information: All listed fees include the use of sports lighting when required for scheduled activities. Field preparation may include sport-specific striping and goals when appropriate; however, seasonal and one-time use allocations do not include chalking or in-field lining services unless specifically arranged for an additional fee. For tournaments, fees include lighting, striping, goals, and other required field preparations. When overtime staffing is assigned by the Parks and Recreation Department to support tournament operations, it will include in-field chalking and lining when appropriate. Staffing and preparation needs will be evaluated by Parks and Recreation staff based on the nature and schedule of the event.

Resident Fee Compliance Requirement: This policy helps ensure incorporated Town of Jupiter residents receive the full benefit of their residency. As such, youth sports organizations using Town facilities are expected to follow the Town's established fee schedule and not charge incorporated Jupiter residents any non-resident fees. Doing so may affect the organization's future ability to request facility use.
