My daughter has been playing softball or baseball since she was 4 years old, but after joining her current team last fall rain has rarely made the coaches cancel practices as they've had a number of indoor facilities to turn to when needed. This past weekend we had rain and ended up at Sports Galaxy all the way out in Hackettstown. For those that don't know, Hackettstown is way out in bear country...in the boonies.
Sports Galaxy is a nice indoor turf facility with an 80'x100' field area that they can break down into different sizes, two batting cages and a party room. The owner and staff here were really great and gave the team some additional space and time on the turf after batting practice. I still don't know why a great facility like this is way out in Hackettstown, but I'm glad we got to use it. There are quite a few facilities like this that have sprung up around the state as soccer, softball, field hockey, football, lacrosse, etc have started to become year-round sports. Some of these facilities are too small and some are huge. Sports Galaxy falls in the middle.
I hope these guys are successful out where they're located because the seemed like genuinely great people running the place. read more
