★★Mark Boleky

The basketball court and parking are fine, but they really need to improve their acoustics with the two courts right next to each other. Referee whistles are so loud that the players often stop playing because they think the whistle from the other court is their whistle. Super disruptive to the game. And for the parents sitting on the side, every whistle sounds so loud you want to cover your ears. There have to be ways to put up the fabric sound reduction things on the walls and to hang in between the two courts.

The woman's restroom is not easily acceptable when games are played.

The is was a cool place. I had a blast watching everyone play. It’s a cover play area. That’s really nice. They had a nice party room that was inside and air conditioned. They had candy in bins to buy. The bathrooms are on the other side of the building. This was a great place for adult play activities.

This place has a great opportunity to reach the youth of our communities but was obviously thrown together with a complete lack of foresight and planning. The gym is a nice facility but built with no consideration for the parents, grandparents and friends of the players who come to support their teams. The double gym floor has about 3 ft of width for spectator seating on each court, which means a max of 34-40 seats. Then they place the cheapest folding chairs you can buy in the area! I watched one collapse when a man sat in it yesterday. When your kid is involved in a tournament at this place, they charge $15 per person, per day for a weekend tournament. That’s $30 per family member to most likely have nowhere to sit. Ridiculous. Then to schedule tournament games at 9 am on Sunday morning…forcing people of faith to have tension in their families between their values and their kid’s wishes? Greed has replaced more important values in youth sports and Above is a visible example of it.

Giving this place a three bc they have a really nice turf field that we play on during the nights on weekends but it’s difficult to see when they have availability. You have to call and can’t see an active calendar for availability which is what you would expect from a place like this these days. Even when you call there are so many different individuals running different parts of the facility which gives you the feeling of complete disorganization within their ranks. It’s just such a shame Bc the facility has a lot to offer but it’s so difficult to reach out and book something with them. Their have nice staff, whenever, if you are ever able to reach them. We recently were able to book a night and had a game set up but then were told that we would have to cancel our game because they didn’t have THE STAFF available, causing a cascading issue with our group of soccer players who were ready and eager to play. In summary the facilities at this place are great but their availability, staff, and management in general is just negligent and unorganized. In my opinion it’s very unprofessional and could really use some restructuring to help facilitate things more smoothly here. I hope the owner, the staff, or whoever is in charge of making decisions is able to see this review as honest and objective criticism of the facility and does what would be right in order to change this place for the better.
