1. The basketball floors are dusty and slippery our team paid $500 to slip around like we were wearing skates2. The staff was rude they like to play Mr. & Mrs. authority they boss people around and don’t appreciate the business you give them3. I started playing sports at the sports park when I was 7 and I have seen nothing but decline since early 2000s4. If things don’t change and they continue to lack appreciation for their customer then They will not receive future business but they won’t care because they don’t seem to value your business5. A service rep reached out in response to my one star rating which I appreciated she asked how things can be improved and I believe that she will continue to follow up with customers and continue to make the customer experience better

I drive a truck and I delivered the flooring a match for the cheer event. I hope the event went well and everyone enjoyed themselves

Both of my kids play hockey here. The facility is great. Two rinks that are cleaned between use and several locker rooms for players. There is a nice gym upstairs, but we already belong to another one or would consider this one.I can’t speak to the conditions of the other sports facilities offered here, but I know a lot of parents with kids in soccer leagues seem satisfied with that as well.

Was too hot, even with fans running. Score boards clocks did not work on half the courts. Place has potential to be awesome if they put some money back in to it.

This place is so great. It has 4 indoor basketball courts and 2 indoor soccer fields. Outdoor basketball and many more things. The dorms are great.

Went to lacrosse tournament was leaving and went to use restroom but the doors were locked. When you have an event like this you keep your facilities open at least a half hour after it is completed for the day. There were still games being played on the fields when I left. Whats up with that.

Great facility for skates and basketball players. Not as great for the spectators of those sports. Basketball at least has some bleachers but the two rinks are essentially standing room only. Not a terrible thing, but a bit rough for people who may not be able to stand for an hour at a time and/or those with kids. And you may have to share the spectator area with a birthday party cried. Also, its legit cold in the skating area, as in not even the occasional space heater that youd find in most rinks. Of course, most rinks have some seating that would lend itself to a space heater, so.... That said, this is a nice facility.

Hockey rink area is nice, but the indoor soccer field is a mess. Rest rooms are disgusting. Had to walk to the ice rink area anytime my kids or I had to use the rest room.

I was there for a volleyball tournament and the place was dirty. The floor was very dusty and there were dead mice spotted under the bleachers. Bathrooms ran out of toilet paper early in the day. Concession stand was non existent.

Well for many years weve been going there for soccer games & practices but now someone else is running the show there & soccer being a great money maker for the community because of all the tournaments they hold there is now be pushed aside for hockey. Now dont get me wrong hockey is a great sport but build yourselves your own rinks. Why do the indoor soccer fields have to be turned into rinks? Well thats just my opinion. Soccer is a great sport & all my kids have played there as well as basketball. Hope those courts dont freeze over to.

Our son plays hockey here 2x a week. Each week they state that the kids have 2 locker rooms. There roughly 40-50 kids who play. When we arrive, even though they have 2 rooms listed, they never unlock the other room even though it is never in use. This causes the kids to get ready out in the rink area. There is absolutely no way 40-50 kids plus, at least, 1 parent per kid can fit in one locker room. When the staff is approached, they are rude and act like you are bothering them even the manager!

There are no bleachers or benches. You have to stand by the glass or upstairs to see. There are some chairs and stools, but you cant see down the ice if you sit on them. The roof was leaking during our game.

Based solely on the golf dome: we went to hit some balls and it still wasnt ready after the dome collapsed. Web site indicated it was open. Three of us drove there only to find it still closed. Contact said he had nothing to do with the website. Within minutes, the website was updated. Go figure.

Still going strong, but the facilities are fairly run-down. Needs a few hundred thousand dollars of a makeover. It seems other groups have tried to put some lipstick on it over the years but its just not there. Feels old and tired. Hoping someone will breathe some new life into this campus sooner than later; also hoping this is done with private money and not taxpayer dollars. :)

Sports facility for kids and more.Could use a faceliftSports is crucial like music to our families and All kids. Can you imagine no competition and no experience of playing on a Team. Win or lose; we our teammates-friends for eternity. Cheer squads are the epitome of Teamwork.These Are the building blocks of adulthood. Sure working is great to show work ethic and earn spending money. Not everybody gets to work as a kid, but school activities are available for most every child. The Hatred of peacefully protesting football players is sending kids the wrong message-success means you are a spoiled brat. No! Enough. All of us would give alot to be a pro athlete! Or Performer. Do you play sports? I still do everyday. I thrive on activity but need to play. Music and Art are very similar. Same mindset. NFL players are regulated, tested, questioned, insulted, overly praised and criticized. Did John Wayne play sports? Damn right there cowboys and cowgirls!!!JFK play football? Knute Rockne? Bill Bradley play hoops?? Reagan and Ford play football?? Go Blue! By shunning peaceful protests of workers who risk much, you devalue every athletes experience??? Please stop now. Watch the Steelers And browns and Bills and Cowboys, Vikings and Any other event you desire. Your boycott is not gonna matter. My pastor friend said that holding onto anger, hatred and grudges is just like DRINKING POISON AND EXPECTING THE OTHER PERSON TO GET SICKIn this case the Calzone Is football-shaped but it represents the Best of American athletes in all pursuits of happiness You owe yourself a break. The founding fathers are watching. NFL btw stands tonight for Not For Long pirollo bros recipe calzone. Lets Eat!
