I love coming here. Helps me kill an hour when im bored. Batting cages always clean usually never have problems with the pitching machines, easy to find location however im a little irritated as i come here around once every week or two during the summer for the batting cages and literally never wear a helmet but the other day i get told I have to(and if ive been needing to wear one all these previous times your employees aren’t really doing their job) Which is fine rules are rules, but the part that makes me mad is they tell you this after you put your money in the machine for tokens and can’t give you a refund or let you use a helmet due to COVID( which again i get, but also don’t because you aren’t that busy where you can’t let two people an hour that might need to use a helmet and disinfect it) i wasn’t gonna cry about 5 dollars, I’ll just hold on to my tokens for next time but unless i missed it put up a sign saying we can’t lend out stuff instead of trusting the young employees to pay attention to who’s walking up and inform everyone because i will admit i am a young adult myself and probably would do exactly...

The one downside was that we got stuck in a huge line waiting for the next hole because there was a group of 8 kids playing at once. The sign up front says there is a max of 4 (or 5?) people per group, and I wish that had been enforced as there was a back up of probably 6-7 groups behind this one.
