  2. Merge onto GA 85 South toward Riverdale.
  3. Go 12.7 miles on GA 85, then turn right onto Hood Avenue. Hood is easy to miss. It’s the first right after the large intersection of GA 85 / Forrest Avenue, which has a Checkers on the near right and a BP station on the far right. The turn for Hood is just past the BP.
  4. Go 0.3 miles on Hood, then turn left onto Tiger Trail. The fields are on the right. Park in one of the school lots past the fields.

Alternate directions via Union City (avoids downtown Atlanta and GA Hwy 85):

  3. Take I-85 South (toward Columbus) for about 3 miles to exit # 64: GA Highway 138 / Union City / Jonesboro Road.
  4. Turn left onto Highway 138 and go 4.5 miles (you’ll pass several car dealerships).
  5. Turn right at a traffic light onto Highway 279 and go 2 miles (you’ll pass Evander Holyfield’s old mansion on the right).
  6. Turn right at a traffic light onto Highway 314 and go 4.6 miles until you reach GA Highway 85 (not I-85).
  7. Bear right onto GA 85 South (also called Glynn Street) and go 0.6 miles. At the 0.5 mile mark, you’ll cross through a large intersection with Forrest Avenue, which has a Checkers on the near right and a BP station on the far right.

  9. Go 0.3 miles on Hood, then turn left onto Tiger Trail. The fields are on the right. Park in one of the school lots past the fields.

The trip home:

Turning left from Hood onto GA-85 North can be challenging. You may find it easier to turn right onto GA-85 South and then take a U-turn to switch back to the proper direction.
