From the reviews

Richardson Oval located in the Athenia section of Clifton, is a box shaped field, consisting of only a regulation size soccer field on the Monhegan Street side (the west side of the park), and a baseball/softball field on its southeastern corner.

★★★★☆ — Burt, Jun 2023

…Plus if you run around the whole field it equals the same amount as running in a track .25.

★★★★★ — Maurisio, Jun 2020

It was a decent oval but it was more of an egg then an oval. The ends could have been more equal like a stretched out circle but not in this case.

★★★★☆ — James, Jan 2018
