This pair of outdoor basketball courts is at the Crandall Field recreation area in the Hopkinton, Rhode Island, village of Ashaway. Parking for the wide open athletic grounds is about 100 yards west of the courts and without a paved path between them. The lot is adjacent to the Hopkinton Recreation Department's Crandall House and Recreation Building.
The side-by-side courts are oriented mainly north-south and have seen better days. Though the weathered metal backboards and durable double rim hoops with their chain-link nets are in decent condition, the playing surface has settled quite a bit. It would be fair to call the crisscross cracks "fissures" since they're so long, wide, and deep in many instances. That said, the surface is still mostly flat. The entire court is coated green and has white boundary lines. There are no benches.
