The Kiwanis and DYSA full-size fields, Summit and
Pearce East U-12 fields, American Legion and Pearce West U-10 fields, and
tournament fields #1, #2 and #3 are at the Point Mallard Soccer Complex in
Decatur.
Go north on I-65 to the Highway 67 exit (exit
334). You will exit to the right off of the interstate, go to the bottom
of the ramp and turn left (going
back under the I-65 overpass). Go about 6
miles and turn right on Highway 31 (also known as Sixth Avenue). The Lynn
Layton Chevrolet car dealership is on the corner of Highways 67 and 31.
After you turn right go will go about two miles to a McDonald's
Hamburgers. It is on the corner of Highway 31 and 8th Street SE. Turn
right on 8th Street. Follow 8th Street as far as you can go until you pass
the golf course and a soccer field on your left. At the next intersection
turn right.
If you go straight by mistake you will be in the
Point Mallard Campgrounds. Follow that road as far as you can go (about a
mile). It makes a huge sweeping curve through the whole Point Mallard
Complex. After you pass the baseball fields (on left) and Aquatic Center
(on your right) the soccer complex will be on your left. Look for the tall
stadium type lights.
