Arena Softball

Great location for kids birthday parties. Our party was a kickball game and the kids had a blast. The newly remodeled bar/​restaurant is very nice. The birthday party package had 4 pizzas and I have to admit it was the worst cheese pizza I’ve tried. Our host said the chef was trying a new recipe… We only had one host for our party with 20 boys. Needless to say she couldn’t keep up. The pizza was ready on time but no drinks in the room. The kids were thirsty from playing kickball. In summary, management needs to step up their game if they want to successfully host kids birthday parties.

Finally had the chance to try this place out! I was not disappointed– Such a cool set up. You walk into a beautiful sports bar/​Restaurant (see full review on «the Draft at Arena Softball» Unilocal account) and continue on into a softball arena. The sports bar has a glass wall that allows you to watch games from inside while you eat and have a beer which I thought was really cool.
Now for the actual softball, you can tell this place has a cult following of arena softball players which is really fun to watch, they have leagues going almost every night if you have a large enough group for a team. If you are coming solo its a great place to bring your kids, or for a date night, when the arena games aren’t going on. The batting cages are really fun and top of the line, also if there is no one on the fields you are able to use them at no cost (as long as you use batting cages). There were a few fathers with their kids playing catch and running around and they looked like they were having a blast! Lastly they have a small arcade for those who like video games. Even if you are not going to play softball the bar was great to grab a beer, eat, and watch a game whether it be a football game on one of the many huge big screens playing sports, or an arena softball game going on live.
Will definitely be back!

This place left me with an impression of management being unreliable or money hungry. I came in here once to watch football and everyone on the staff I encountered and interacted with were very nice and professional. While there, I noticed they had private rooms so I asked one of the staff about inquiring about reserving a room for a UFC fight coming up in a couple weeks since I figured it would be a cool way to watch the fight with some friends.
I was given a business card for the operations manager there named Melissa and was told to call or email her for pricing. The next day I emailed her and didn’t hear back and I wrote her a reminder about my inquiry and she got back to me and said the following
«Sorry I thought I had responded to you! could you let me know, how many people do you think you will have and are you wanting to get pricing on food as well?»
I responded to her saying minimum of 3 people/​max of 7 people and as far as food we didn’t need pricing but we were going to order food and alcohol throughout the event and she wrote me back saying «I will have to check with our restaurant manager tomorrow and see what he will want to do or our set up on the fight night. I know that we have thrown the idea around about allowing groups to rent out the room during fight nights but I just need to be sure we are ready to start that right now. Is it ok I get back to on this?»
I said sure thing and well days went by and she never got back to me at all! I ended up taking my business to Buffalo Wild Wings instead and racked up a pretty nice sized bill with the group I had as well.
I mean the main issue is it was totally unprofessional to not respond back. The first time it was a delay in her response but she at least apologized and I get it, she is busy but her last response of just saying I need to check to see if we are ready to start this now? Cmon, she was totally shopping around to see if she could get the most money from the room, otherwise she wouldn’t have asked me in the first response about party size and menu options.
She could have at least gotten back to me and said no sorry we’re booked up now or the room went to a higher bidder but thing is she never asked me how much I was willing to pay nor gave me a quote for the room in general or even «got back to me» like she said she would — VERY unprofessional.
This is a great facility for softball I am sure but from their food and beverage side of things where they want to get people in the door to watch football and MMA events management needs more training. If you’re looking to reserve an event here I would recommend to get everything in writing cause you might have to take your business elsewhere.
Again, the staff I encountered was great, my bad experience was with the manager only. It’s a cool place and atmosphere in general but bad customer service is bad customer service especially when it comes from the top brass.

Held our End of the Season Soccer party here again this year. Friendly, organized staff. Kids had a great time and I didn’t have to do anything but pay the bill. The renovation is a great upgrade! We will be back next year!
We also bring our son here for batting cages… great place!

The drive from south Sacramento was so worth it. As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted. Our host Samantha was amazing. If I had cash I would have tipped her. She took care of our boys, and worked very hard. She had help from another amazing staff member Halie. Our boys had the best time. The parents all enjoyed the option to order drinks and watch them play kickball. Our end of the year soccer party was EPIC. Thank you for having us!!! :)

If you are here for ball, it is all good. Great layout, good facility, and family friendly.
But if you’re looking for a birthday party, think twice. The pizza was burnt yet so soggy it flopped. The room wasn’t set up, management should really work on teams for service. The staff communication between each other was weak tonight and seemed super hectic. But our girl was a hustler and work hard to pick up the pieces.

I love the new look! Great atmosphere for football with a great selection of beers on tap.

Fun for awhile… co-​ed is definitely better than the male only leagues. The umps have power trips and start making calls in favor of the other team if you give them a hard time for making bad calls. It’s worked in my favor and against me before. Sad because it takes away from the game. Family friendly if you have a bunch of little ones that will be running around

hi-​ya!
This place is located slightly off the beaten path, but it’s great! You pay $ 10 bucks for unlimited play until 10PM. They have two fields that are completely enclosed with netting and there are 6 batting cages with speeds varying up to 70 mph.
The fields can be used for either softball or even kickball! We tried them all and the kickball was a lot of fun. Even for adults :) like us.
They have a decent selection of bats (baseball/​softball) to borrow (largest baseball) is 33. There aren’t any official lines to wait for while batting… just bleachers to sit on and playground rules of when it’s your turn.
Plenty of lighting and places to sit. There is a snack bar and they even serve alcohol – granted I probably drink too much as is.
Great place to kick back and have a little fun.

Beer, softball/​baseball, what more do you need? Huge indoor facility with baseball and softball pitching machines. Preload a card at the snack bar, it’s about 2.00 $ for a round of 14 balls. ATM machine, bar with beers on tap about 3.00 $, no liquor license yet. They sell food but I’ve never eaten any so I can’t comment on that. Two huge indoor softball arenas with multiple leagues per night going on. Super chill environment to come hit a round or watch your friends play while having a beer… or two. :) Staff are middle age twenties or so that are super nice & friendly. I forgot my card there one night and they found it and put it in the safe for me, I called the next day and she said to come pick it up whenever I could. Awesome!!! It’s pretty hard to find so I would GPS their address, they are located next to White Cap. Great spot for softball/​baseball scene!

So I just went to dinner with my daughter at Red Robin tonight, you would think I would be writing a review about them right… Well I would, except I was so disgusted by the lewd, loud and inappropriate comments being made by the employees of this company. They appear to be coaches maybe? I only hope that they are coaches for the adults due to their major interest in their «teams» asses, lips, etc. This company may want to instatute a rule about wearing company gear out in public when their employees are getting sloppy drunk in a public place and making overtly sexual comments about their clients. I for one will never use your service and I would warn anyone with young girls to steer clear as well.

My husband had more fun than me. But he said the machines were off (balls were not accurate). The young lady at the front was really nice, but there was nothing she could do. For me it was too cold and the birds (inside the arena) freaked me out a little. Lol oh and I used a Groupon deal.

Been here a few times to get on my batting game. The price is pretty good and staff is friendly. Bar food is what I expected. Haven’t played indoor softball yet but it looks pretty fun and organized.

My buddy got a deal and we headed here. Hard to find. Wanted to pull a right at night when we saw the street sign but a car was tooooooo close behind. So I thought better of it and made a U-​Turn when possible. Kind of a hike from Natomas, like 25 miles or so. We got our bats and headed to the cages. Hit softballs and baseballs at all speeds. Haven’t hammered balls since being on a fraternity team in Chico. What a great workout! Not huffing, luckily I’m in pretty good athletic shape, but definitely need to catch my wind. So we took turns giving about 5 or so minutes rest between each 17 pitch session.
On our way out, saw the food, pretty fair prices but did not partake. Maybe next time. Also, saw a field where a game just concluded. Pretty cool. Leagues must be quite fun. Definitely will come back on a Groupon sometime. Recommend this place so you can put off getting old! Test your batting prowess just like McGwire, Bonds, Canseco, Palmeiro, Tejada and many others but leave the ‘ROIDS to them!

Large place nice machines easy to see the ball great weekend specials and a great place to get ready for league play

I came in for the first time with my son in on a Thursday afternoon during the summer for some batting cage practice. This is a large indoor facility in the middle of an industrial warehouse. The have six batting cages and two indoor diamonds. Each batting cage has three adjustable speeds. The farthest one pitches at 35, 40, and 45. The nearest cage pitches up to 75 mph. You can select either baseball or softball. The staff was friendly. We ordered a polish dog and a hot dog at the snack bar. It took seven minutes to cook them. The polish dog was tasty. The hot dog was a bit salty. We had no wait at the cages and had an enjoyable time. One star off because they have no air conditioning, only fans to keep the air moving.

I definitely love coming here to hit. The only downside is fast pitch softball is located in the cages where baseball teams reserve for practice. Other than that, it is definitely worth drive.

Such a fun place! On Saturdays, its unlimited batting for $ 10. Only bummer is parents seem to drop their kids off for the night and take off so the kids are batting the entire night without parental supervision. Still have a blast tho. Food is surprisingly not too bad either. We ordered a pizza and a pitcher of brews and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I also order the nachos, and that was a different story. They drizzled almost no cheese on a plate full of chips. That was it, for $ 2.50. Meh. Also, the hubby tried their sliders and was so pumped about them, he decided to try the tacos. Not great… at all. So I guess food is essentially a hit and miss.

I only rated 1 star on behalf of the bitchy high school girls constantly working the stand.
For some reason I cant find 1 helpful staff employee that actually appreciates taking my money on a regualr basis. I just get snooty high school girl attitude. «I just wanna but tokens, is that not cool with you?»
The idea of a company is to leave the customer with an impression of wanting to come back.
Other than the pms induced bitchyness this place is awesome. Couldve been a 5 star

Fak this place is hard to find. I promise if you go to it the first time you’ll get lost because the building is not facing industrial street. You just have to basically trust ALLåh and make a left into the business complex and drive around till you find it.
Now that I have let the diva out. I have to say this place is impressive. Everything is indoors. Batting cages, baseball field and they serve food and drank aka beer. You can even have a birthday party here how cool is that? damm that rhymes my inner rapper came out sorry.
I played my third game here with our league and it’s really fun. I suggest you try it out.
Im out word to your mutha
