The “field” in Miller Field still applies, but no longer as an airfield. Today it is basically one large sports facility, with dozens of soccer, baseball, and softball fields. There’s even a cricket field. These are available for organized league sports or for one-day outings such as a company softball game (provided leagues are not scheduled). Permits and insurance are required. Visit the National Park Service’s Team Sports web page for more information. You can also try calling the Staten Island Permit office at (718) 351-6970.

At the northeast corner of the park—along the water near the picnic area and Ranger Station—are two basketball courts and a nice playground. The courts can be used for league play as well, but no permit is needed for individuals or group of friends to shoot some hoops if there are no league games going on.
