Its on the 192 just past the I4 and close to main Disney entrance.

From Crescent Lakes, I'd say between 15 to 20 minutes depending on the traffic. Best route is to go north on the Poinciana Boulevard until you meet US192; do NOT turn into 192 but continue across it until you meet Osceola Parkway a mile further up. Bear left into Osceola Parkway and follow the signs to various WDW parks, among them the Sports Complex on your left.

Once you come on the 192 the WDW signs are good and you should'nt get lost[msnembarrased].

Yes, but the US192 West from the Poinciana turnoff is usually very crowded with traffic. On the other hand, Osceola Parkway, only a mile further along Poinciana, is more free flowing and leads directly to WDW, including the Sports Complex.

Steve, just as a side line...Why are they hoping to go there? We have been up there a couple of times, admitedly, not entirely planned, but there wasn't a lot to see each time, in fact I would have to say a bit dull? Do your guests know of an event that will be taking place when they hope to go?:)

We have a couple of families staying in our villa who are part of a 'softball' team who are playing in a University tournament there next year. They wanted to know how far it was ! (...and I didn't know!!)
