The Elena Orendain Athletic Complex represents a very positive partnership between Yuma Catholic High School and the city of Yuma.  Yuma Catholic High School built the complex for their school use and Yuma Parks and Recreation maintains the complex in exchange for evening and weekend use.  Yuma Parks and Recreation is very proud of our athletic fields and the turf management techniques employed to keep our fields safe and playable.
