Open Gym Premier

Not a serious volleyball gym. On several courts there is a substantial discrepancy (~10ft) in distance behind the serving line from one side versus the other. Not only that, but the short side is abnormally short, preventing usual jump or topspin serves. This obviously confers a clear advantage to the team on the longer side. Maybe fine for 12U and lower. Not a great venue for older athletes. Other amenities far below average when compared to other venues in the area. Cafe is massively undersized and impossibly slow - not equipped for the number of people who attend. Bathrooms are equally undersized and always have long lines. It’s always a disappointment when I see this facility on the schedule. I hope they invest some of the exorbitant entry and parking fees into the appropriate improvements. Food update: if you wait long enough, you will discover the advertised $9 chicken sandwich is literally a single heavily fried chicken tender, cut in half and stuffed between two pieces of toasted wonderbread. Could not be further from anything one might expect to receive when ordering a chicken sandwich…A true travesty in its own right.

Overall not a bad experience. Traffic and parking can be a challenge but available. The facility is totally cashless but the alternate parking across the street is not so be prepared. The food court was preparing hot fresh food at a reasonable price. In my opinion the only issue would be with the very limited restroom facilities.

Cool gym. Gym parking lot is small, but for sports events like today’s Volleyball tournament, they also use the parking lot that is right in front, I believe that’s the inside swap meet’s parking lot. $20 per car. There only a few metal benches inside by each court, but it is not enough (and they are a bit uncomfortable lol), it is high recommended to bring your own chairs. They offer a snack shop and a equipment shop.

This gym is not the most convenient when you take into consideration the accomdations/amentities to the amount of people it facilitiates ratio. You'll be charged $20 for parking, which is extremely limited. If you don't get here very early, you'll be stuck in the line of traffic on the major just trying to get into the facility. In addition to the $20 parking, they charge you a $20 entry fee. Which I think is an absurd amount for a family to pay just to watch children play sports. The women's restroom has five stalls and 2 sinks. That's it for the entire facility. The line for the restroom is always long. You'll have players approaching asking if they can cut in line because they're in the middle of a match or they're about to start a match, etc. It isn't convenient for the players. In order to make more money, they cram a ton of volleyball courts into one facility. The seating is extremely limited. 2 bleachers for each side, and there is hardly enough room to walk from one side of the facility to the next. This place, when occupied, just screams fire safety hazard to me. I kept scanning the room and wondering what kind of mess this place would be if we had to quickly evacuate. I feel like they could do better and maybe limit the number of courts/games that are occurring at once. The no allowing outside snacks or beverages is a bit absurd also. They allow one bottle of water per person. Only so they can charge you $5+ for their water. The open gym premier Ladera Ranch location is much better, and they have it figured out. Despite their absurd prices.

We’ve played at nicer gyms. Cafe is nice, food is decent, but overpriced, but that’s expected. Worst part is there is no A/C inside the gym and it’s like a sauna. I kept having to step outside to get some clean air. Very stuffy and hot in the gym. For a large facility like this, I don’t understand why they don’t install an AC system. They charge enough in entry fee and parking to be able to install two full capacity units. Also, seating is very limited, so expect to stand. Horrible gym!!
