Directions
Below are driving directions to the playing fields and local hospitals. Normal commuting times to Kingston and Charlestown, RI are 45-50 minutes from Providence, RI and 15-30 minutes respectively from Mystic, CT. However, on a nice weekend there can be considerable traffic going toward the beaches in the morning and from the beaches in the afternoon. We suggest that you allow for this traffic by leaving an extra 30 minutes for getting to the fields (more if you have the first game of the day). When returning to your hotel on nice days beach traffic can be very heavy on Route 1 from mid-afternoon until 6 or 7 p.m.
*If heading to the tournament from Coventry, Warwick, and/or Providence area you may want to consider taking the back roads (Rt. 2 and Ministerial Rd.) to avoid beach traffic on Rt. 4 and Rt. 1. |
