Upland Park is a public park located at 3014 Jefferson Street in South Omaha, Nebraska. The park and surrounding neighborhood were opened in 1913.[1]

Upland Park has two tennis courts, two soccer fields, walking paths, and a small playground at the park, along with a "sprayground," which is a small water park. The sprayground replaced a swimming pool located at the park for several decades during a park-wide renovation in 1999.[2] The spraygrounds are attributed in the 412 percent increase in park attendance in the year following its opening, drawing 7,500 additional users to the park annually.[3] The park has been an important location for low-income and immigrant youth to play soccer, and according to the Omaha World-Herald, it was integral to the Omaha South High School's soccer team's success.[4]

Because of its proximity to the former ASARCO site in Omaha, the park has been identified as being contaminated with lead.[5]
