Azu Sports Park

Azu Sports Park, sports park in Hanno, Saitama, Japan

Azu Sports Park is a sports facility in Hanno, Japan, with multiple fields and courts for various activities. The grounds feature a baseball field, a soccer field, two multipurpose sport fields, eight clay tennis courts, and additional open spaces with a children's playground.

Azu Sports Park is a municipal urban park in Hanno whose grounds concentrate most of the city's sports facilities, including the Hanno Civic Gymnasium and Hanno Civic Baseball Stadium. Its hockey pitch hosted matches of the 2004 Saitama National Sports Festival and the 2008 Saitama National Sports Tournament. The adjacent Tove Jansson Akebono Children's Forest Park opened on 1 July 1997 on the Kaji Hills after national designation as a Heisei Commemorative Children's Forest Park.

The park is named after the Azu district of Hanno. Its clay tennis courts host the annual soft tennis rookie tournament for junior high schools from Hanno and Hidaka, organised by the two cities' joint athletics federation. The adjacent Tove Jansson Akebono Children's Forest Park, inspired by the Moomin characters, opened on 1 July 1997.

The park is a 15-minute walk from Motokaji Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. Facilities are grouped together: the citizens' gymnasium, baseball ground, soccer pitch, two softball fields, eight clay tennis courts and a hockey pitch. The grounds also hold a children's plaza, an ancient-style plaza, a free plaza, a fountain and a shallow stream for wading.

The park's hockey pitch hosted matches during the 2008 Saitama National Sports Festival (Sai-natsu Raihachi Saitama Sōtai) and the 2004 Sukurugadai Kokutai, and every year it stages the soft-tennis rookie tournament organised by the Hidaka and Hanno junior high school federations. The adjacent Tove Jansson Akebono Children's Forest Park opened on 1 July 1997.
