Took a basketball to the park?

Hi. Is this sentence correct? I realize writing the word "basketball" twice is awkward, although one means something different than the other. Thank you in advance for your help.

He took a basketball to the park to play basketall.

It's correct, but does sound a bit clumsy. Consider rewording. He took his own ball.
