It is weird reading these negative reviews. I didn't have this experience at all. Coach Sarah was…read moreso patient with my daughter. Believe me when I say that she had NO experience. Her and the ball were mortal enemies. lol My daughter showed no interest in sports. She played volleyball at lunch and decided to give it a try. This was a pleasant surprise. So, I ran with this quickly. I googled for clubs near us and found this one. Sarah was funny and understanding when I spoke to her on the phone. I had a positive feeling about this. In the beginning, she did private lessons with Coach Sarah. Watching it would occasionally make me cringe internally. lol However, she was giving it a try. She was starting to smile more and more each lesson. She asked me to buy her a volleyball. This was another thing that surprised me! I rushed to the store! lol She started to practice at home everyday. She told coach. Coach Sarah told her to give herself a weekly break. No practicing for 2 days a week. She worked hard. Her progress with serving was incredible. She went from not being able to touch the ball when trying to serve, to getting the ball over the net with under-handing it, to putting it over with her overhand! The 3 of us were so excited when that first one happened! Coach Sarah told me to keep recording through each serve. Thankfully, I listened! I got it recorded! So, after a while she tried out for the club and made it!!! We were both relived. Coach Sarah emphasized that she didn't believe in special treatment. I appreciated that. So we kept our private lessons and went to clinics before the tryouts. Though we would have loved to have had Coach Sarah as a coach, we understand about her not being able to coach every team. We had practice 2 days a week, we had tournaments roughly every few weeks, and we had a good tailgating experience. She's already practicing for the next tryouts! I told her to take a break and she won't listen to me. She will listen to coach before me. In fact, I'll make that call right after I post this review!

I don't normally leave negative reviews like this. I usually prefer to simply not return to an…read moreestablishment if my experience was disappointing. However, after what we experienced with East Bay Volleyball Club, I feel other families deserve to know what they could potentially be walking into before making the commitment. My daughter played on the P1 team under Director/Coach Sarah Talton. We joined because we believed in the environment and values that were presented early in the season -- a program focused on supporting athletes, building confidence, developing skills, and creating positive opportunities for girls in the sport. Unfortunately, our experience throughout the season did not reflect those values. As the season progressed, there were ongoing issues with communication, professionalism, leadership, and the way players were spoken to and treated. There was constant turnover and inconsistency with coaching staff, and at times the girls were left without coaching direction during matches when the coach stepped away from the bench. Families were also promised three practices plus conditioning, yet those expectations were not consistently met. At one point, parents were told the girls "weren't ready" for conditioning, which was difficult to understand considering conditioning is meant to help athletes improve and prepare physically throughout the season. The breaking point for our family came during an end-of-season tournament when the team was forced to forfeit three matches they had already won because players were not properly rostered/cleared to compete. The girls worked hard for those wins after an already difficult season, only to lose them over preventable administrative issues that were completely within the club's control. What made the situation even more disappointing was the lack of accountability afterward. When concerns were brought to Sarah by parents, they were dismissed rather than taken seriously. At the end of the day, the environment we experienced did not align with our family's values when it comes to honesty, accountability, professionalism, and respect for young athletes. Based on our experience, this is not a club I will be returning to.

We just moved to Oakley and found this sports center about a mile or two from our house. We went…read moreone weekend to check the place, and we were surprised by how big and enormous the facility is. The grounds have several tennis courts, pickleball courts, a swimming pool, a jacuzzi, and a lot of exercise equipment, including a treadmill, an elliptical, and offer several exercise classes. They also have shower rooms and spas. We were amazed at the number of facilities that we ended up joining this sports club. I wanted to take a picture of the facilities but I want to protect the privacy of the members and respect them. They also offer a one-day pass for non-members at a daily rate. I usually come after 12 noon and I noticed that there's less crowd. We have used the pickleball court and we had the court by ourselves. You can also do lap swimming in one of their swimming pool There are so many options for you to do at this place and you will enjoy your day exercising or just hanging around by the pool. They also have a coffee shop and serve nutritional drinks. The staff are also good and accommodating to your needs. If you're looking for a sports center, check this place and compare it.

Nearly every piece of equipment with padding now has cracked or torn upholstery, which gives the impression that maintenance has been neglected. I am also concerned about security. My locker has been broken into twice, and when I reported the incidents, I was told by a front desk employee that the security footage could not be shared. While I understand there may be privacy policies regarding video footage, having my locker broken into on two separate occasions without any apparent resolution is extremely frustrating. I would appreciate an explanation of what steps are being taken to improve the condition of the equipment and address the security concerns so that members can feel confident using the facility.

We didn't realize the class schedule started earlier here, so unfortunately we missed her class. Even so, Coach Ian was kind enough to let my daughter join in with his daughter's training since we were already there.

Coach Ian made the class fun and engaging, and it was great to see his wife join in the training as well. Thank you, Coach Ian, for being so welcoming and for taking the time to give my daughter such a positive first experience. We truly appreciate it!

Long-time member. Deeply disappointed…read more I've been a loyal member of this club for almost 10 years, and it's disappointing to see how little they value long-term customers. When I first joined, I paid top dollar for a membership that included the ability to pause my account for business trips or medical reasons which I hardly ever needed to-- something I specifically asked about before signing up and choosing that one package that offered that feature. A couple of years ago, they changed their policy mid-contract, removing the ability to pause memberships, even for legitimate medical issues. Despite my doctor providing documentation with two different surgeries, I was simply told there were "no exceptions." After a decade of loyalty, that response said it all. Over the years, my wife also joined as a full member, and one of our kids took swim lessons here for years -- which are not cheap. Between all of us, we've put a lot of money into this place. But apparently, loyalty and good faith don't mean anything anymore. Beyond the customer service, the facility itself has gone downhill. When machines are out of order. You should expect it will be for months at a time (3-6 months isn't unusual), and every rainy season the roof leaks -- they literally have buckets set up to catch water. I refer to them as the "annual rain buckets". The irony is that the owners are construction contractors, yet they can't seem to maintain their own building. After almost a decade and spending a lot of money, I've decided to take my family's business elsewhere. It's unfortunate -- this could be a great place, but it's clear they've stopped caring about their members.
