Be of the premier batting and training facilities in the triad region for baseball and softball…read more Great staff and the owner has been running this for a very long time. The new location is way better than the old high point road spot. For those looking to recreationally hit some baseballs/softballs they have token machines.

A great facility to get some practice in! Someone is trying to talk me into joining a softball…read moreleague, so I felt the need to see if I even remember how to swing a bat anymore. Enter the Greensboro Batting Center, a one stop shop for all things baseball and softball. They have token-based batting cages for all speeds in baseball and softball form, traditional batting cages where someone pitches to you or you use a machine rented by the hour, as well as indoor turf fields for fielding practice and all sorts of uses. There is even a full fitness center and weight room! For me, I just wanted to hit some balls, so I bought some tokens at the front for a very reasonable charge, selected a loaner bat, and took to the cages. I started with slow softball, but worked my way up through the speeds all the way up to average baseball, which I think was about 50-60mph. I did a lot better than I thought, though people standing nearby surely got plenty of breeze. You get 20 pitches per token if I counted correct, and most pitches were properly over the plate. Enough variance that you'll need to adjust, but none ever came close to hitting me. Plenty of fans for cooling off, and vending is available if you need a drink. It looks like some local travel clubs use the facility, and possibly some schools. Anyhow, a really great facility, and i'll be back!

We've done personal coaching and group camps for my son a few times over the years... Top-notch…read morecoaching and they do a fantastic job connecting with the kids. Highly recommend the camps. They also have batting cages set at various speeds for both baseball and softball which are really convenient.

**Parents considering Spikes Travel Baseball: Please read before signing up.**…read more I am sharing our experience after being involved with this academy for approximately three years through camps, batting cages, and the Golden Spikes program. Unfortunately, our experience with the Spikes program has become extremely disappointing. I have not seen the level of player development, communication, or family support that I expected from an academy based baseball program. One of our biggest concerns has been how an injured player is handled after being medically cleared to return to baseball. In our experience, the organization completely ignored the doctor's clearance for our child to return to full baseball activity. There was no meaningful evaluation, return to play process, or effort to help our child transition back onto the field after receiving medical clearance. Instead, we felt that our child was essentially being treated as a liability rather than being given an opportunity to return and continue developing. For the amount families pay, I expected significantly more than access to fields and uniforms. The Spikes teams are coached by parent coaches, rather than being directly coached and developed by the academy. Families are paying thousands of dollars for the program, yet we experienced very little direct support from the academy when we needed guidance. We also came away with the impression that the owner was primarily interested in collecting tuition rather than supporting players and families throughout the season. Once tuition was paid, we felt that communication and concern for our child's development declined significantly. Communication has been a major issue. Even after our tuition was fully paid, I continued to feel that our concerns were not being taken seriously. Messages and questions went unanswered or were not addressed in a meaningful way. That has been especially frustrating after being a loyal customer for three years--attending camps and purchasing batting-cage cards, including additional $100 cards for extra batting time, on top of the money spent on the Golden Spikes program. Our first season with Spikes, we saw two families leave the team during the season. Now, during our second season, our own family has reached the point where we feel we need to leave as well. This is not about expecting special treatment for our child. It is about expecting a baseball academy to communicate with families, respect medical clearance, support players through setbacks, and provide a genuine opportunity for children to develop. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience. I am sharing this so other families can ask important questions before committing thousands of dollars: * Who actually coaches and develops the players? * What happens if a player gets injured? * Is there a formal return\-to\-play or evaluation process? * How does the organization respond when a doctor clears a player to return to full baseball activity? * What support does the academy provide to families? * What exactly is included in the tuition? * How accessible is academy leadership when parents have concerns? * Does the organization remain engaged with families after tuition is paid? After three years of supporting this organization, it is incredibly disappointing to feel that the program has changed so much. We wanted our child to play baseball, develop, and continue loving the game. Instead, our experience has left us feeling unheard and unsupported. **Parents deserve to know what they are paying for before making that commitment.

Had some fun today playing Mini golf Dillion was a great…read morehost to us. Even with a lot of rain we still had fun

Very disappointing experience -- especially with management…read more We visited Celebration Station with our four children and my cousin, who has an intellectual disability. Unfortunately, the way she was treated by the manager was extremely upsetting. I understand safety rules, but the manager was rude, impatient, and showed very little understanding or compassion toward her. The worst part was when my cousin's foot became stuck getting out of the bumper boat and, while we were helping her, the manager made a comment along the lines of, "See, this is why this is a liability." That comment was completely inappropriate and very hurtful. The manager was also rude when we asked about the outdoor rides and seemed irritated by our children simply enjoying the bumper boats. We paid over $180 for six people, yet barely got to do anything before deciding to leave because of how uncomfortable the experience had become. I even sent Celebration Station a formal complaint afterward and never received a response. We came to spend the day having fun as a family and left feeling disrespected and unwelcome. I would expect much better customer service and, most importantly, compassion and appropriate treatment of guests with disabilities.

I feel that if you are looking up reviews on a minor baseball stadiums which ever division, you…read morealready understand the basics of the sporting event you are interested in. So let me answer some questions I had. Call with anything you have to ask, as the staff is very friendly and competent in answering. It is the same ticket price for all (in said section price you choose), other than toddlers -- they are free. Parking? Well, you know how it goes, so get there early. Lots get coned off after game starts, even with open spaces. Park at your own risk. The playground is beside the batting cage. They have a bouncy house that is attended but there is no one to attend and "injury guard" at the playground. The kids are unruly, no parents in sight. And I mean, if they were? -- I didn't let my kids play there tonight. Seating aisles are very tight, like, old school stadium tight. Other than playground, I have no major qualms, but this is not the stadiums fault. I guess? Would have just liked to have a little bit of refereeing. Food is your good ol' classics. Would like to see some growth, but there is a great up and coming food mall right next door, Blessing Park (I think). Which also provides a splash park, this is explained on the website. Everything entree, side, & adult bevs pretty much runs about $8, of course snacks a bit cheaper. Beside the HPU vintage section, you may enjoy cocktails and wine, as well in a bit more relaxed and roomy environment. Very clean facility; maintenance working the whole time with smiling faces and happy to converse. Friendly staff and volunteers all around. Merchant shop and the High Pint both super awesome. Rock out!

This new stadium is absolutely beautiful! It's the first time I've ever encountered a fully turf…read morefield for a baseball game before (including the infield, mound and everything) but you can't argue with how it looks, and it seems the players are happy with how it plays as well. Beyond just the looks of everything being pristine and new, the stadium has a good amount of amenities for a smaller park, specials on ticket packages for many occasions, and some decent food. I've been to three games here, and each time was very happy with my seats. Right now, most games have a lot of seats available, so once you're in you can kind of maneuver to get the angle you want. Either way, you won't find a bad seat in the house, and in the outfield there is plenty of room for standing and watching as well. The Rockers are an independent baseball club, meaning they aren't a farm team for a major league program. There are several interesting things about this, chief of which is that you'll see guys with MLB experience mixed in with guys who have never played at a level higher than this one. Scores can get out of control sometimes, but two of the three games I attended were played close and relatively clean. Finally, with independent baseball, remember the team has to support itself financially in full. Some items are more expensive than at affiliated clubs, but nothing at least to my eye, is outrageous. Last thing, on fireworks nights, thanks to the turf field... they let the fans out onto the field to watch the show! That is a really cool experience, and one that you won't want to miss if you have kids that are learning about baseball.
