Labatt Park, Baseball venue in London, Canada

Labatt Park is a baseball ground near the forks of the Thames River in London, Ontario, with a grass outfield and dirt infield. A chain-link fence topped with green mesh surrounds the field, and a dark outfield wall carries a "330 FT" sign and a red logo beside a tall foul pole. Metal bleachers stand behind the field, with blue plastic seating in the foreground.

Tecumseh Park opened on 3 May 1877, when the London Tecumsehs beat their juniors, the London Atlantics, 5-1 before about a thousand people. It was named for Shawnee chief Tecumseh, who died at the Battle of the Thames in 1813. A Thames flood on 11 July 1883 destroyed the original grandstands and home plate was moved to roughly its present spot. The City of London bought the grounds on 31 December 1936 and renamed them Labatt Memorial Park.

The park's name honours the Shawnee chief Tecumseh, who died at the Battle of the Thames in 1813; it was called Tecumseh Park until 1936. In 1895 the London Bicycle Club organised the city's first motion picture display here, and from 1892 the grounds hosted professional bicycle races.

The grounds are easy to access by car and provide parking nearby for visitors, with clear signage directing you to the main entrance. The facility has shaded seating areas and is generally comfortable for spending an afternoon watching a game.

The claim is global, not continental: Labatt Park is described as the oldest continually operating baseball grounds in the world, in use since 1877. The site was a grassy commons at the Thames River forks before W. J. Reid created Tecumseh Park; the City of London bought it on December 31, 1936, with funding from the Labatt brewing company.
