Randall's Island Park is located in the East River below the Triboro Bridge, adjacent to East Harlem in Manhattan, the South Bronx, and Astoria, Queens. It is accessible by public and private transportation. You can use the following link to locate Randall’s Island on Google Maps PLEASE NOTE: Due to extensive field construction, we will be using different fields than we have in the past. We expect to have several newly renovated fields available for this year's NY 7s - however, we don't know exactly which ones they will be just yet. As soon as we have more details on exact field location, it will be updated here.

SHUTTLE BUS – Getting around and off Randall’s Island We will have our own private buses shuttling between the two field areas we are using on Randall's Island, as well as between Randall’s and Lexington Avenue and East 125th Street on the upper-east side of Manhattan from 12:00 P.M. through 6:00 P.M (after the finals). Please note that the reason this bus does not go all the way to the tournament hotel is that, with NYC traffic being what it is, we would be able to have maybe 3 round trips total. So take advantage of the opportunity to explore the adventure that is the NYC Subway! (4/5/6 train is accessible at shuttle stop). |
