Important Parking Information

Ohio State (not the Stingray organization) will charge for parking this year. This is a campus wide policy implemented last fall and is not unique to our tournament. One of the issues is that this will add a few minutes to your parking experience and I wanted to make sure that you and your families are aware of the correct procedure. Please refer to attached file regarding use of the PayNDisplay machine. For parking locations, refer to the attached OSU Recreational Sports Map. At Coffey Road Park, the parking lot is located just south of the playing fields on Coffey Road. At Fred Beekman Park, the parking lot is located just south of the playing fields on Carmack Road. Both lots are color coded black with white letters. When you drive into the parking lots, you will see the PayNDisplay machine - it is very prominent. From Friday morning until 6:00 pm, parking is $1.00 per hour. You will need to estimate the amount of time you will be at the playing fields and buy a ticket for that amount. After 6:00 pm on Friday, parking reverts to a $3.00 flat rate for the rest of the day and the full days of Saturday and Sunday. After you purchase your parking ticket, you must take it back to your car and put it on the dashboard face up. With the amount of teams coming in during the morning hours, there will be a waiting line at the PayNDisplay machine. So please add an extra 10 to 15 minutes onto your planned arrival time at the playing fields. As we have done in the past, we will be running golf carts to help transport teams at Fred Beekman Park from the parking lot to the playing fields because the lot here is a bit remote from the fields. Coffey Road Park does not suffer from the same logistics as Beekman - so no golf carts down there. We will be running (3) golf carts continuously from 2 hours before the start of the first game until the last games are completed each day.
