Take I-310 to Interstate 10 and head
towards Baton Rouge. Get off at Exit 177 (the exit for
the Tanger Outlet Mall). Go down the ramp and turn right
on to Highway 30. Go past the Holiday Inn and the Hospital
which will both be on the right hand side. Just past
the Hospital make a left turn (this is the first left
past the Tourist Center) – this is about 0.6 miles from
the Interstate. After turning left off of Highway 30,
go to the first stop sign and turn right on to Orice
Roth. The soccer fields are down about 0.2 miles on
the left-hand side (if you go to a red light you have
gone too far). At the entrance to the soccer fields
is a new octagon building (facilities).
|
Take I-310 to Interstate 10 and head
west towards Baton Rouge. Get off at the Burnside/Gonzales
Exit (I think this is exit 179, the one before the exit
for the Outlet Mall – this is the same exit that you
take to get to Pelican Point). Go down the ramp and
turn right on to LA Highway 44. Go to the second light
and turn left. The soccer fields will be on the right
hand side, about ¼ mile down from the light. The first
entrance is right after some houses and there is a second
entrance by a firestation (with parking near some baseball
fields).
|
Take I-10 West to Baton Rouge. Exit at
Siegen Road, I believe this is the first exit after
the water park. Go south on Siegen Road (turn left at
the bottom of the exit ramp), toward the Mississippi
River. Cross Perkins Road and Highland Road. Siegen
Road will turn to the right and become Burbank Drive.
The soccer complex is on the left hand side before you
get to Bluebonnet Road.
|
Take Interstate 10 west to Baton Rouge.
Take the LA 3064/Essen Lane exit (exit number 160).
Turn right on Essen Lane. Go under Interstate 12 (about
0.8 miles from I-10) and then turn left on to Jefferson
Highway. This turn is just after you go under I-12.
Go down Jefferson Highway about 1.3 miles. Just after
crossing the intersection with Corporate Blvd. (on left)
and Old Hammond Hwy (on right), turn slight right on
to Lobdell Ave. Go 0.6 miles and turn right onto Goodwood
Blvd. The park with soccer fields will be on the left
hand side.
|
Take Interstate 10 east from I-310. At
the I-10, I-610 split, take I-10 towards New Orleans.
Go past the Metairie Rd. exit (currently closed in 2003)
and take the next exit for Carrollton Road. Stay in
the left lane once on the exit ramp and follow the signs
to Carrollton Road. This will put you on Carrollton,
heading south toward the Mississippi River. Take Carrollton
all the way to the end (past St. Charles Ave.) to the
levee. Turn left. Continue on "River Road" past Broadway
where the road turns into Magazine St. Take the second
right. This is Riverview Drive, which runs along the
right side of the Audubon Zoo. On Riverview Dr. you
will be headed toward the river. You will pass under
an arch and go over some railroad tracks. The road is
one way and has no turns until next to the fields. Proceed
until you reach a fork in the road. There is a small
area on the left that has parking. This is where the
fields are. The fields are on the left hand side of
the road, between the zoo and the river.

Take the Causeway across
Lake Pontchartrain. The Causeway will turn into Hwy
190. Continue straight north on Hwy 190. From the toll
booth on the north side of the Lake, it will be 4.5
miles until you pass under Interstate 12. Continue north
on Hwy 190. At 3.3 miles from I-12, you will go over
an overpass. After about another 1 ½ miles, Hwy 190
will briefly join Hwy 25. Shortly after this, you will
need to turn left on to Hwy 190 which will now be heading
west. This turn is just past a Shell station. This turn
is 5.5 miles from I-12. Heading west on Hwy 190, it
will be 1.6 miles to Covington High School, 2.2 miles
to Pen Mill Road and 3.2 miles to Pruden Road (all distances
from light where you turned left on to Hwy 190). Turn
right on Pruden Road and go north 1.0 mile until the
end of Pruden Road. Turn left and then immediately right
into the Covington Youth Soccer Association (CYSA) fields.
|
Take I-55 North from Laplace
to Hammond. Take the first Hammond Exit. You can only
go one way on this exit. The road will crossover I-12
and you will need to get in the left lane. The Hammond
Holiday Inn will be on the left. After the first light
and the Holiday Inn, the entrance to the STYSA fields
will be on your left. Turn left at the soccer ball sign.
These fields are approximately located behind the Holiday
Inn.
|
Take Hwy. 90 or I-310 to the intersection
of Hwy. 90 and I-310. Head west on Hwy. 90 toward Houma.
Continue on Hwy. 90 until the fourth Houma exit. The
first Houma exit is the old Hwy. 90 but continue straight
on the divided highway until the 4th Houma
exit. Measuring from Hahnville High School it is 21.6
miles to the first Houma exit and 32.5 miles to the
4th Houma exit. The 4th Houma
exit is Louisiana Highway 311. Take this exit. At the
bottom of the ramp, turn right towards Houma. This road
will take you to the Houma Terrebone Soccer Association
fields. From the bottom of the ramp, it is 5.1 miles
to the first light (Savanne Road with Chevron on corner),
and 2.5 additional miles to the 2nd light
(S. Hollywood Road to Holiday Inn). The soccer fields
are on the right hand side past the first light but
before you get to the Water Park (and before the second
light). The drive time from Hahnville High School to
the soccer fields is about 45 minutes.
|
Take I-310 north to I-10 and head east
on I-10 towards New Orleans. Take the Veterans Blvd.
exit (the next exit after Williams Blvd.). This exit
will curve around back to Veterans Blvd. Stay to the
left and turn left on to Veterans Blvd. Once on Veterans
Blvd., stay in the left hand lane and turn left at the
first stop light. This is the entrance to Lafreniere
Park. Continue straight into the park (do not take the
first left). The parking area is on the left hand side
and the fields are on the right hand side of the road.
|
Take I-10 East to the I-10/610 split.
Continue eastward on I-610 and take the Canal St. Exit.
Turn left on Canal, heading toward the lake. At Harrison,
take a right. Go over the canal and into City Park.
The first cross street is Marconi. Go straight, across
Marconi. There will be a snowball stand on the right
hand side just past Marconi. Proceed about 50 yards
past the snowball stand and turn right. Go through some
metal gates and you will see 4 soccer fields in a wooded
area. The first two are U-8 and the third field is the
U-10 field. If you reach the golf course in City Park,
you have gone too far down Harrison.
|
Take I-10 East to the I-10/610 split.
Continue eastward on I-610 and take the Canal St. Exit.
Turn left on Canal, heading toward the lake. At Harrison,
take a right. Go over the canal and into City Park.
The first cross street is Marconi. Turn right on Marconi
and the fields are on the right hand side, between Marconi
Drive and the canal.
|
Take I-310 north to I-10 East to Causeway
Blvd. Go north on Causeway Blvd. across Lake Pontchartrain.
When you get even with the toll booth on the north side
of the lake this is mileage 0.0. Turn right at the first
exit (0.1 miles) on to the East Causeway Approach Road.
Continue straight through the first light (0.4 miles)
and the second light (1.0 miles). Get in the right hand
lane. At the first stop sign (1.75 miles) continue straight
ahead and you will merge on to Highway 190. Highway
190 will be a two lane road. Continue east on Highway
190. The first light will be at 2.6 miles from the toll
booth. This is the intersection with Hwy. 59. There
will be a Texaco on the right hand side of the road
and a McDonalds on the left hand side. Continue straight
heading east on Highway 190. About 1.85 miles past the
light (4.45 miles from the toll booth) is the entrance
to Pelican Park. Turn left into Pelican Park. You will
travel about 1.1 miles into the park to get to the first
left hand turn you can take. After you turn left you
should see a parking area and the Yellow Fields complex
(will be three fields with a covered shelter area in
the middle).
|
From the I-10 and I-49 interchange in
Lafayette, go north on I-49 to exit 17. Follow the map
provided. I believe that the Holiday Inn is about 1
mile south of the I-10 and I-49 interchange on I-49.
I have also heard that there is some construction on
Interstate 10 near Lafayette. This will add some time
to this trip. Some people are planning to take Highway
90 all the way to Lafayette.

Take General de Gaulle East to end of
road, continue over the bridge which crosses the intercoastal
waterway, the road curves around and comes to a T, turn
right toward English Turn, go past English Turn entrance
until the road ends at the levee (Mississippi River),
the road curves to the right and then parallels the
river, continue about ½ mile and the field will be on
the right hand
