Probert Park is a park in Crown Hill, North Shore City, rated 4.4 by visitors.
A park with lit courts or sports facilities extends its usefulness well past daylight hours, letting people play or train after work through the darker winter months rather than only in summer. Regulars know to check whether lighting is actually on a timer or needs to be switched on, since assumptions here can mean turning up to a dark court unexpectedly. A park serving both casual and organised sport tends to have busier and quieter periods depending on club bookings, so checking times helps avoid a clash if casual use is the plan. Combining a park visit with a walk around the wider grounds, rather than heading straight for one facility, makes better use of the space on a longer visit.
