NICHOLAS GARAFOLA, Appellant, v. CITY OF NEW YORK et al., Respondents.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court correctly granted the defendants motion for summary judgment. The plaintiff assumed the risks inherent in playing on the football field where he allegedly sustained his injuries, including those risks associated with the construction of the field and any open and obvious conditions on it ( see, Maddox v. City of New York, 66 N.Y.2d 270, 277; Walner v. City of New York, 243 A.D.2d 629; Reynolds v. Jefferson Val. Racquet Club, 238 A.D.2d 493; Touti v. City of New York, 233 A.D.2d 496; McKey v. City of New York, 234 A.D.2d 114; Russini v. Incorporated Vil. of Mineola, 184 A.D.2d 561).

Rosenblatt, J. P., Sullivan, Joy, Altman and Luciano, JJ., concur.
