Bryn Mawr Meadows Park is a south Minneapolis sports park with family friendly amenities that include a playground, pool, sports courts and fields and ice rinks in the winter months. Included among the more expected sports facilities is a cricket field and a broomball rink. It’s sports complex hosts tournaments from all over the city and region. The park offers restrooms and off-street parking. This park is not adjacent to a school, therefore its usual pool season begins Memorial Day Weekend and ends after Labor Day. However, it is always a good idea to check MPRB’s wading pool page to see which pools are open or closed at any time. Perfect for families, the bicycle skills park built in the fall of 2023 has features for both beginner and more advanced trail riders. MPRB incorporated features from the park’s old tennis courts. More advanced features include a teeter-totter and a 6-inch balance beam, but beginners can choose to go around these features. The bike park is located on a natural surface trail loop in Bryn Mawr’s northeast corner that runs through the woods near the Luce Line Trail and new pedestrian/bicycle bridge to the Bassett Creek Valley Station on the Metro Transit Green Line. The ice rink at this park is only open for broomball league and does not have free loaner equipment. Most other Minneapolis parks do have loaner equipment available in their warming houses.

Minneapolis Parks is in the early stages of an improvements project at this park.  MPRB has developed a preferred concept plan and is now seeking community input before refining and finalizing. The plan is expected to take several years to fully implement, but will work to balance amenities with the athletic fields, but reducing but improving the current ball diamonds and re-arranging fields for reduced impact on nearby neighbors and updating the non-athletic field portion of the park to better serve the neighborhood. Most work should be done by the end of June 2023. Updates include:7 Ideas for Family Fun at Bryn Mawr Meadows Park
