Ball/Road Hockey

During the spring, summer and autumn months the dry rink pads change from ice rinks to roller hockey and Ball Hockey rinks.

Many games can be played on the hockey side of the dry pad. The City leaves the below times open for community permits. The dry hockey rink is available for pick-up ball hockey every evening until 11pm. If you want to get a group together and play call the park and the staff will turn on the lights. Feel free to join these games, just introduce yourself or if no one is around, get a game started.

Volleyball/ badminton:

We also have a Volleyball (and Badminton) net, strung up near the west side of the playground in the south end of the park. The area is open for pick-up games all the time.

Tetherball
Tetherball:

Up during daylight hours, by the playground. Every year Parks, Forestry and Recreation provide tetherballs. We write "Dufferin Grove Park" on the balls to discourage thieving but if you see that it needs air, or that someone has removed the tetherball, just tell staff. Staff can be found near the wading pool or at the clubhouse. Or call 416 392-0913.

Overball

Saturday's around noon in the park

Cricket

We do not have proper cricket pitch, but Cricket is regularly played on or near the soccer field.

 
Tai chi:

This can be seen all over the park in the early mornings, done mainly but not only by older Chinese people, alone or in small groups. The oldest person we’re aware of doing tai chi in the park (until recently) was over 100.

Yoga

Thursdays 6 to 7pm in the park during the summer (June to August). See 2014 poster
