Great place... though I feel that private cars should be limited to the parking lot during multiple games/attendance... it gets tight and creates lots of blind spots.

This was the second time attending a kids soccer game here. I am so impressed with the space. It is large and clean and a great place to attend a game.

★★★

It's a good spot for the kids to play soccer. The only down fall is that when it rains the roof leaks into the building inside and the food at the cossession stand is way over priced. Not much seating is provided for parents eighter.

Gorgeous Fall day. Beautifully maintained faux fields. Indoor fields are awesome, well maintained. 1 full size field, 2 smaller. Busy place! Snack bar with soft pretzels, hot dogs and coffee. Clean bathrooms. Roots has great facilities. It is a great benefit to the Westfield community.

Great facility. We utilize the indoor soccer fields for my son's team. I know they have cycling and a pitching area in the building. The little cafe is great for early morning practice/games.

If you or your child plays soccer, you can't beat this state of the art facility. Has 3 indoor fields, a raised indoor track, and will be opening food vendors. Great views of two fields from the mezzanine.

1. Parking lights arent on while games are scheduled for late in the evening and its pitch black in the parking lot. 2. They NEED to train referees properly and schedule them appropriately. A 14 year old should not be a referee if he cant call unsafe plays where players have potential to be injured. This referee stood at half by the side line the entire game and did not call at least 10 unsafe plays in the first 15 minutes.

Excellent,excellent,excellent. ..Both grandsons attend different activities. Oldest for soccer.His coach goes above and beyond to teach these 5 year old boys skills.The 3 year old goes for gymnastics.His coach is good but not as good as the coach the older boy had last year.She seems to focus more on the girls.She does engage well when the girls go off to swimming and he has some 1 on 1 instruction. We enjoy watching our grandchildren and the other children.

To be honest, I am the proud owner of this facility. Ryan, Jason and Alex do an amazing job every day running the programs and are very passionate about Soccer, LAX and other sports. It is the safest indoor turf facility from Boston to Albany. If you care about your body or your kids and do not want to get normal sports injuries (ankle and knee) you will choose this facility.

Cold freezing cold. The bathrooms were the only warm space. We were there for a tournament. The rules were inconsistent for example the first 2 games the goalies could punt, our 3rd game we were told it was against the rules but opposing goalie kept doing it. The final game neither team was allowed to and according to the parents that was they first time they had been told. Its not important what the rules are as all indoor facilities have their own but at least make them consistent across multiple games in a day.
