We are not opposed to bringing Cricket to Pleasanton; in fact, we <br />believe it's a great idea. However, we strongly recommend putting the Cricket field in <br />a location with more open space and an actual parking lot. <br />We don't agree with adding the Cricket field at Muirwood for many reasons. Here are <br />a few. <br />We don't want to take away from the small open space where many folks play <br />volleyball, lacrosse, flag football, Ultimate Frisbee, soccer, sunbathing/relaxing, or <br />simply walking dogs. <br />We don't want the backstop removed or moved as many people use it to play <br />baseball, softball, and practice other sports. <br />We are very concerned about flying cricket balls for pedestrians, homes, cars, <br />highways, pets, etc. <br />Our most significant concern is about the traffic. As it is now, many people travel here <br />by car, to play tennis, baseball, basketball, volleyball, soccer, lacrosse, football, walk <br />
