I played soccer my entire life as did my husband and it was always difficult for us to allow someone else to train our children. The minute we observed a session at Next Level I knew we had struck gold. The staff is incredible. The coaches make my kids feel so important and have the most amazing relationship with them. As a parent, you can't ask for more than that. The technical training is unmatched and it shows during their club games. We toured a few other local soccer training programs and were very disappointed. We are so happy we found NLA!

Our son reported that kids were left to watch unsupervised YouTube Shorts for long periods, some of which included very disturbing content. More alarmingly, the pickup process is a major security risk. The front desk staff seemed completely indifferent to the children gathered in the corner, and there appeared to be no protocol to prevent a child from leaving with a stranger. If you are looking for a camp that prioritizes child safety and active engagement, I would highly suggest looking elsewhere.

On the other side of the concession stand, to the left of the entrance is an open rink (could be used for basketball, hockey or the like), where some very close friends of mine and I played rounds of "pro" dodgeball (in the style of pro-dodgeball) until we got to the tournament round and the best team won! Yes, that was the team I played on, mind you, I had about 4 pretty tough guys playing with the two of us ladies that were on the team. I managed to "dodge,dip, duck, dive & dodge" the ball as the pre-training from the movie "Dodgeball" emphasizes. It was a fun time with a great group of people, if you're so brave as schedule yourselves in there and play dodgeball or anything in a team atmosphere, go for it, its an awesome place.

There's ample parking, a snack shack, and courts to the right and left. When I've attended, pretty much every court is in play -- soccer, hockey, and volleyball. You can register a team for a fee and they organize the match-ups for a season's worth of games (a few months). But be warned that some of their games can be scheduled as late as 11pm.

The Deets: I was made aware through Yelp actually that there was a practice arena for the Carolina Hurricanes in our lil ol' town of Morrisville (complete with its own cafe, another review to come) so I ventured out to see it. The Wake Competition Center is a big sports campus including the Invisalign Arena that houses the ice rinks and cafe, as well as other centers for gymnastics and volleyball that I saw and large fields for outside sports (see their webpage for details on all aspects of this multi-sport complex). Those outside sports fields were packed with people when I went in, as it is mid soccer season. The sports fields were very well kept from what I saw, very nice. I ventured inside Invisalign Arena and saw the ice rinks (one Red and one Black, for the Hurricane team colors). There was a bit of rink action going on while I was there, and not only can you sit in the stands to watch but also there are seats with tables lining the rink like a work area (see pic). This place is a pretty impressive ice sports rink facility and the arena was as packed inside here as the outside fields were, this is a bustling place! There appears to be ample parking but again it was near capacity when I visited on the weekend. I think this sports complex is pretty nice and has a lot to offer for an active sports area like the NC Triangle, I dig it!

So they're like Nottingham Forest, which is an actual team, and not the place Robin Hood lives (for the purposes of soccer). They play against teams like the Atlanta Silverbacks, FC Edmonton, and the new New York Cosmos (starting in the fall season). That being said, Carolina Railhawks games are a great time. Beer is relatively cheap ($5 for a giant can of Bud Light/Landshark/Stella/Red Hook), and there are no bad seats (though there are cramped seats). That being said, you can easily buy less cramped seats in the 300 sections (though 309 is for the ultimate faithful fans, so if you're a big fan, hang out there and sing all the songs and whatnot). The Railhawks themselves are a good product on the pitch. I saw them play in the US Open Cup, the national tournament for all US Soccer teams (though usually won by the MLS team that cares the most... usually Salt Lake, Kansas City, or one of the two Northwest teams). The Railhawks beat two MLS teams in a 3 week period (the LA Galaxy AND Chivas USA, thereby conquering the city of Los Angeles for the Triangle). They may have eventually lost to Real Salt Lake, but they went out as the last team in the 2nd tier. So go see a game. The games are good fun.

Nope, we've just received word that lightening is still within three miles of the stadium; please exit the bleachers!). The game that should have begun at 7pm was delayed till 8:30. But then we played ball! (Is that slogan only used with baseball?) It was a vs Miami game and I was pretty impressed by the speed and skill demonstrated by both teams. With a dad who still plays the sport at age 54 and a brother who left the womb in cleats, I've seen my fair share of games. Though I ended up leaving at halftime (I'd spent 4 hours at the field!), I would have no trouble watching a full game here and not getting bored. I might leave a separate review for the facility; but for those reading this one, note that parking is $5; beers (mostly bud and miller) are $4. There are individual seats on the bleachers that cradle your bum. And there's a grill offering cheesy nachos and basic ballpark food.

When they have soccer its a chore to find parking but eventually you do. He loves the park. Write a great review and make it sound like me. Every time my grandson comes to stay with me, one thing is guaranteed we're going to this park. It's become our spot, and honestly, it never disappoints. The playground is perfect for kids. There are plenty of slides, swings, and even a sand area, which my grandson absolutely loves. He could spend hours there and still not be ready to leave. It's one of those places where you can just let them play, explore, and be kids without overthinking it. Now, I will say when there are soccer games going on, parking can be a bit of a challenge. You might have to circle around a little and be patient, but you'll find a spot eventually. And once you do, it's completely worth it. Overall, this park is a win for us every time. My grandson loves it, and seeing how excited he gets to go back? That alone makes it a 5-star place in my book.
