You can park on the grass at the Middle School area if the gate by the high school stadium is open. If not, It's best to park in high school student lot and walk down the road between school and the stadium to the field. It's a long walk. Parking on Country Trail road is now a bike lane and you could be subject to a ticket or get towed.‍
