    Typical Field House. Open gyms, spacious, concessions had a variety of food…read more Staff could have been more helpful. Needed to find a trainer or a massage gun, none were available for use.

    I normally do not write negative reviews, especially about a facility where our volleyball teams…read morehave played for the past three years, but the change we have seen at Frisco Fieldhouse has been extremely disappointing. Two or three years ago, I would have described the Fieldhouse as a very professional organization. There seemed to be a genuine emphasis on sportsmanship, accountability, fair competition, and maintaining the integrity of recreational sports. Coaches and teams were expected to follow the rules, and there appeared to be very little tolerance for cheating. Unfortunately, that is no longer the experience we have had. Over the last year in particular, the culture has changed drastically. From our perspective, the focus seems to have shifted away from maintaining a fair recreational sports program and more toward simply collecting league fees and filling teams. Last season, we began noticing teams stacking their rosters and using players who were not consistent with the rosters we had competed against. We brought our concerns directly to Fieldhouse staff. What shocked me was being told that there was essentially nothing they could do unless we paid a $50 roster-check fee. Think about that for a moment. We are already paying to participate in a recreational league, yet if we believe another team may be violating roster rules, we have to pay an additional $50 just to have the Fieldhouse verify whether its own league rules are being followed. Why should coaches and parents have to pay extra to protect the integrity of the league? We eventually had an incident involving what we believed was clear roster manipulation, and we even provided video evidence to staff. Despite that, we felt our concerns were largely dismissed and nothing meaningful was done. I have personally attempted to contact Cole Fimbel regarding concerns about the direction of the sports programs and the decline in accountability. Other coaches have told me they have experienced similar difficulty getting responses. Yet emails promoting upcoming seasons continue to arrive regularly while the cost of participating in these recreational leagues continues to increase. That disconnect is frustrating. There is also growing concern among coaches about favoritism and potential conflicts of interest because some individuals involved with these programs also have relationships with other sports organizations or schools. Whether intentional or not, when complaints are not addressed consistently, it creates the appearance that certain teams or organizations receive different treatment. The officiating has also become increasingly inconsistent. Everyone understands that referees will miss calls -- that is part of sports. But consistency, professionalism, and accountability should still be expected when families are paying to participate. What is perhaps most disappointing is watching longtime teams leave. There were several volleyball teams we looked forward to playing every season, and over time we noticed many of them had moved their programs to PSA or elsewhere. Unfortunately, PSA was not a practical option for us because most of our players live close to the Fieldhouse, so we continued trying to make it work. After this summer, however, we decided we were done. This summer was our final season playing volleyball at Frisco Fieldhouse. That decision was not made because we lost games. We have won and lost plenty over the years, and that is part of sports. It was made because we no longer had confidence that the rules would be enforced consistently or that legitimate concerns from coaches would be taken seriously. Recreational sports should be about giving kids an opportunity to compete, develop, and enjoy the game in a fair environment. Coaches should not have to investigate opposing rosters, produce video evidence, repeatedly contact administrators, and then be asked to pay another $50 just to have league rules verified. I sincerely hope the Fieldhouse takes the criticism from coaches and families seriously and works toward restoring the professionalism and integrity that made this facility enjoyable several years ago. Unfortunately, based on our experience over the past year, we could no longer justify bringing our teams back.

    I love this skatepark, I come here weekly. It is in a pretty safe location seeing as it's right…read morebehind a police station. It can get over run by the kids from the schools and parks especially afternoons and weekends. Maybe some more signage that the SKATEPARK is not a playground would be nice. There's bathrooms now not just port o potties which definitely was a need!

    This review is for the rec center. The cost for a colony resident is $10.00 non resident is…read more$20.00. The rec center during the day when school is in caters to adults and Seniors. A weight room of sorts with aerobic devices weight machines ;and barbells as free weights. Just enough to loosen yourself up so you can play other sports. Full size Basketball court. That has 3 pickle ball courts painted in the the court as well as at least two volleyball courts. Daytime during school hours for adults after 3 for youth. The pickle ball courts are used on Monday and Wednesday in afternoon and on Tuesday and Thursday in morning. Those who play there all the time are most welcoming to to the newcomer. The addition of the pickle ball courts shows the center responds to community requests. Outdoors is where the Center has really invested in the needs of our children. There at least 3 activity centers for the younger kids including a rather new looking splash park. Their is a full size basketball court outside. A skateboard bike park. There are ball diamonds for base ball leagues. In the very back of property are two tennis courts well kept up with two pickle ball courts their as well. The rec center has been around for many years and if you are worried about your safety . The local jail is right across from the center with our police department
