Browning Park is a park in Moline, Illinois, USA that has been the home of high school and professional athletic events since 1910. The land is deeded to the city of Moline for use as a "playground and athletic park". While the sports teams of Moline High School have been the primary tenants of the field (and the adjoining Wharton Field House),, the Rock Island Independents, the only professional American football team to be charter members of two major leagues, called Browning Park its home in the 1920s, as did the minor league baseball Moline Plows. Wharton Field House was the home of the Tri-Cities Blackhawks basketball team (which later moved to Milwaukee and became the Hawks) in the late 1940s and the Quad City Thunder of the Continental Basketball Association four decades later.
