"If I could give this place NEGATIVE stars, I would. This place is filled with racists and the referees are garbage. On one occasion the ref came up to our team before the game had even started and (mind you, we are colored) told us Carlitos can’t play. None of our team mates were called ‘Carlitos’. This place is filled with favoritism. Our team is the only colored team thus far in the league. Each and every match we are beat up and no refs ever make a call. The goalie from the opposite team straight up punched one of our players in the gut and he made no call. So one of OUR players was getting the refs attention for it and he was hit with a blue card. Of course our player is in shock and is asking why but then almost immediately his blue card turned into a red card because he ‘bumped’ the ref and that is not what happened. The referee tried to walk through our player and our player held his ground. We had less than 2 mins in the game. 6-2 with our team leading. They tossed our match because of the incident. When we go to the main office to ask about the disqualification we were greeted by the most disrespectful, egotistical manager. Didn’t even want to hear us out and refused to get up out of his seat to check the footage of said incident. “You want me to stop what im doing to check some footage” OF COURSE I DO. IT’S YOUR JOB. Soccer is one of the most diverse sports in the world. This place is far from diverse and if you’re not welcoming to all races you shouldn’t be running a sports complex."

"My sons are amazing boys future men. The sports Academy and Elite FT. Are unprofessional and racist.The food is never fresh!They have never respected my children during there soccer games since we first started. They will tell everyone else that their child is amazing, give them high fives, the staff will talk to other parents have never said Hi to me, their mother. They are rude and talk to my children and I disrespectfully. The employees should never be around children."

"I like that there are some indoor facilities where our children can play. The service staff seem friendly and know their tasks. The food and finger foods are good. There's a bar to! Some refs care more than others about the actual rules of the game. The children all seem to live it and provides a place for play no matter the time year/ weather."
