  We hosted my son’s birthday party here and had an absolute blast! The kids loved playing organized games on the turf and trying out all the different simulator games. The party room was perfect for pizza and cake after games. Aaron and team were fantastic to work with and made the entire process smooth and easy!

  Just had my son’s 7th birthday at the Training Yard! Andrew was so responsive with my questions leading up to the party. Rebecka was there for the day of the party and helped make it run smoothly. She made sure we had everything we needed during set up and throughout the party. They went above and beyond to make sure the doors were secure so no one got out. All the kids loved the bouncy houses and were able to run off all their energy. While it’s been a very hot summer; the turf area was a little warm but the party room allowed for the kids to take a break and cool off. There was plenty of space to enjoy our pizza party too. I love to be able to support local businesses as well! This is a gem of a location in Highwood!

  We hosted a party for our preschool program at the Training Yard and it was perfect. Aaron was so accommodating for our large group and the space was great for kiddos to burn off some winter energy. The inflatable options were awesome for our group and we loved being able to bring in our own food. Highly recommend!

  I loved my birthday party!! I wanted to invite a lot of my baseball buddies to my birthday party and I asked my parents if it could be a place that we could play blitz ball together just for fun. Well, The Training Yard is Legit! My parents set up the party at The Training Yard and it was fire! It’s in Highwood which was good since it was close to home. They said it was super easy to plan and not crazy expensive like some other places that aren’t even close to being this good. The coaches were fun and chill. They kept me and my friends hyped with blitzball, kickball, and other games! The music was on point and the virtual sports simulators were super fun. All my friends were super fired up and nobody was just standing around bored. The owners were cool too and made everything run smooth. My parents were happy about that. The spot is huge, super clean, and perfect for sports. We had all the space to run and play, and decorating was easy for my parents. It looked sick when they were done, and everything was set up perfectly when we got there. The party room where we ate and cut the my birthday cake was perfect. If you’re into sports or looking for a prime spot for a party, The Training Yard is solid. This place was the perfect vibe, and I’m ready to go back and do another party there. Thank you very much!

  We had my son’s 4th birthday party at the Training Yard and I couldn’t recommend it more. All the kids had a blast on the blow ups and games on the simulators. The party area is perfect for food and cake. Staff is super helpful and friendly.
