One of the softball machines was also out of order. Would definitely come back though!

She has seen multiple trainers. All of them are incredibly nice and helpful. If one can't help you with a goal, they have no problem identifying someone else that can. All the instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. The facility is always clean and picked up. Parking behind the facility or on the street is always available. Sometimes it's good to get a little BP with the machines or soft toss in a cage to get out of the tee work in the garage. It's super close to the freeway and easy to get to. The online system is really easy to navigate and never have issues scheduling. I can't rave enough about Octavia and her team! You really feel like they invest in your player. They get to know them personally and you feel like they are on the journey way with you.

I'm trying to train to play lacrosse post collegiate level so I was hoping to use this complex to shoot at the goal. I'm not allowed to further practice on Alhambra High School's turf field where I played all 4 years because it's a "liability" issue. Unfortunately the complex owner wouldn't allow me to finish my sentence before being rude to me and saying I'm not allowed to use the complex. This isn't the first time I've experienced aggression and unfriendly manners from the residents of Martinez.

It's definitely something I'd recommend -- perfect for all ages and such a great way to spend time with friends.

Anyone leaving those kinds of comments must've truly woken up on the wrong side of the bed to be that cruel and unfair. Let me explain why East Bay Sports deserves a five-star review. I've been bringing my son here since he could walk he started in the Little Kickers program and now, at age nine, plays in the soccer team division. We absolutely love indoor soccer, and this facility makes it such a great experience for families. The kids always have a blast, the field is consistently clean and safe, and the entire place has such a welcoming atmosphere. The owner, Chris, deserves special recognition. He's incredibly calm, patient, and professional even when parents get heated during games, coming up to him in his office raising their voices, he never raises his voice or loses his composure. You can tell he genuinely cares about the families and players who come here. This is a family-run establishment and the only indoor soccer facility in the area, which makes it such a valuable part of our community. Beyond soccer, they also offer batting cages (which are a ton of fun!) and host birthday parties that kids love. Whether your child is a toddler just learning to kick a ball or an older kid who's ready for league play, there's a perfect spot for everyone. You don't need to be a pro you just need to want to play, learn, and have fun. With so many classes and programs to choose from, I highly recommend East Bay Sports for any family looking for a positive, active, and inclusive environment.

Castro Valley hosts this mini golf spot that's an affiliate of the Golfland family and features its two 18-hole ranges perfect for beginners and experts alike. After a few rounds on the green, consider venturing into their arcades to play some good old fashioned video games (Time Crisis and other dual player shooters, Mario Kart and other racing games, and fighting games) and skill games (like skee ball, table air hockey, and claw machines). Be wary, however, for those who have game cards from other Golflands, they're location specific so they won't work here unless you have one from this spot. Starting from the giant parking lot which is just off of a busy street, you'll make your way through the gates and stroll up the long walkway to the front desk where you'll register to get your clubs and balls (you'll get your choice from among a few colors). From there, you'll have your pick of the two courses, one for novices and one for the more adventurous. Make your way through the obstacles and mark your scorecard to determine the winner of bragging rights! We came for a birthday party and logistically, they have the main room amongst the beginner course which is well lit from all the open windows but I believe they have another space near the arcade for those looking for a more enclosed, private gathering. Once the guests arrived, they hosted an orientation and got the members all equipped and ready to go. The youngsters had a lot of fun and can't wait to return! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. You'll interact with them more at the arcades especially if you'll be redeeming prizes with your hard-earned digital tickets. The ticket values on the top tier prizes were pretty large but for frequent visitors or lucky winners, you can get some pretty neat stuff here. The mini prizes definitely reminded me of my times at the arcades when I was a kid, very nostalgic! Overall, Golden Tee Golfland is a well-maintained, family friendly environment conducive to an awesome time outdoors as well as an exhilarating experience soaking up the old school arcade vibe. We accumulated a ton of steps during our visit here and the kids could not stop hitting the greens to get their fluorescently colored balls into the holes. The obstacles are fun - there are water effects and moving doors and bridges. While most of them functioned as expected, there were a few hiccups with some like balls getting stuck or certain doors just not functioning as expected. For wetter seasons, the holes for the balls do end up pooling which makes picking the balls out a bit of an unpleasant endeavor. For being exposed to the outdoors, the place was in pretty good shape, however. It's a bummer that the Golflands don't have a unified system for the game cards as it just incentivizes families to just pick one and stick with it instead of venturing out and exploring the other amazing locations like this one. If you're a local, this is a great place to take a date or the family - it'll tee you up for a good time!

I have learned so much about weightlifting and conditioning. She keeps the workouts fun, challenging and motivating without being fake or intimidating, like some trainers. She pushes you to the limit but keeps you in proper form to prevent injury or strain. I highly recommend you check out this great gym!

Tonight he did the same thing with my kids and nieces and nephews and I heard he went above and beyond for another customer too. Honestly, not only being super on point as an employee for everything that we needed but then to go above and beyond like that is something we don't see in the service world very often and this guy needs to get some big time recognition. We have already made plans for the next time we go back and I really hope it's in a night that he works. Very good memories have been made because of his care and big heart.

The staff there were fine but standoffish which was really awkward. The pitching machine was not plugged in and balls were on the ground when I arrived, halfway through the session the pitching machine broke and I had to go troubleshoot it. Cutting down on more expensive hitting time. Finally the clientele was laughably stereotypical, one guy who sounds like he peaked in 3rd grade was talking about how he was going to get kicked out for starting a fight because someone had the audacity to allow a ball they hit go against a net and bump into him. The egos here are huge and fragile, if you aren't into that I would avoid it. You can find better deals elsewhere. Updated to match my Google review, Michael is not interested in improving himself or his business. That's his decision, albeit a sad one. But notice the pattern of his responses to criticism, not addressing it and going on the offense. This is a display of the fragile ego I speak of above. I wish you the best Michael.
