Sportscore Two
The newest recreational activity center is Sportscore Two, a 124 acre site developed in 2001. It's a major tourism draw on weekends and provides local players home field advantage! On weekdays, local teams use the Sportscore complex for practice, training and matches. On weekends, local clubs host tournaments so players can participate close to home.
Sportscore Two has 19 regulation soccer fields and 14 practice fields outdoors, five sand volleyball courts, with an Indoor Sports Center containing three multi-sport surfaces. This recreation center hosts activities that include soccer, rugby, football, volleyball (hard court), golf, softball, basketball, wiffle ball, dodgeball, ultimate Frisbee, adapted and wheelchair sports.
The excellent reputation for quality playing fields and management earned this facility the 2005 "Sports Complex of the Year" award from the Sports Turf Managers Association.
A glimpse into an average season will find over 4,000 tournament soccer teams and 15,000 youth from regular soccer leagues utilizing the fields at Sportscore Two.
There are indoor and outdoor concession and picnic areas, indoor and outdoor dining at the SkyBox restaurant with a great view of the fields, tournament staging area for pictures with giant soccer balls, a playground to keep the little ones busy, and ample parking surrounding the complex. There are parking fees charged during tournaments.
