We passed through Bakersfield on a recent road trip, and as someone with 2 small kids, I'm always…read morelooking for parks along our route. I came across this one and was pleasantly surprised by how newish it was. 2 play structures (one for smaller kids and one for bigger kids), basketball courts, beach volleyball courts, and plenty of benches. The best part (and I can't stress this enough), the play areas were SHADED. Plenty of shade to play and enough trees to provide shade for parents trying to chill on the benches. It should be criminal to build a park in California and not provide shade. Only downside is that there aren't any bathrooms.

This is my son's first season of basketball here (after playing through other organizations in…read moretown), he's in 5th grade. We weren't sure what to expect, but we absolutely LOVE Game day sports! The atmosphere is great, we have a wonderful coach, and they are big on instilling values and teamwork in the boys. My son has improved his skills a lot, made friends, and is already asking me to sign him up for another season! It's very comfortable as well- plenty of chairs and space for parents to hangout and watch the practice, either on the court or in the quieter area off the courts. They have a food bar with a variety of items to order, tables to sit at, and vending machines. The basketball team practices twice a week- once on Mondays with everyone (split into different groups each week, so all the kids eventually get to know each other a little), and then an independent team practice another day of the week. I love the way they organize this, because come game day, most of the boys have already practiced with each other during the week (on the opposing team they play). At the end of the day, it feels like one everyone is on one big team here. I have nothing bad to say about this place overall.. however there is one coach I have heard drop the F bomb several times (not our coach), and I would love to see him clean up his speech. Anyway- my son loves it here and wishes he could come more than twice a week. I'm really glad we found this place! Shout out to coach Henry- he is awesome with the boys and goes above and beyond to help out, say hi to parents, and pep talk the boys. If you're looking for a sports place for your kids, this is the place! Bonus points for being a vendor for Heartland charter school!
