ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! LAWSUIT WORTHY!! RUN AND BE SCARED OF THIS PLACE! THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE CHILDREN AT ALL! Oh and BTW its all on tape. Start to finish! The events that happened at this venue were horrible and completely unacceptable! A child suffered a horrible injury at this tournament. This weekend during a 2012 soccer game a child had an extremely bad injury causing a tibia/fibula fracture. His poor leg was literally flopping. Absolutely traumatic for all involved. He needed immediate medical attention. Unfortunately (inappropriately) there was so medical staff on site. Children get hurt during sports! It happens! But when it does they depend on us to help them and keep them safe This place doesn't do that! No only this place but the club putting this tournament on doesn't care. The directors weren't even there. At the tournament they are hosting. They just paid the venue to do it. And a terrible job they did. 911 was called and they arrived quick but the venue made it so difficult to get to him. The director refused to open the side gates for the first responders. Disgusting! He layed there for 43 minutes before help arrived! Thank God he wasn't bleeding out or something(I mean this seriously). We were instructed not to move him or we would have done it ourselves. Imagin it was your child!!! Over 40 minutes! Youth sports organizations have a duty to protect players. That includes having trained medical personnel on-site and ensuring emergency vehicles can access fields immediately—no delays, no excuses. Also… The parking situation as you can read all the reviews…is atrocious. $5 to park in a dirt field where they provide absolutely nothing but traffic and unsafe situations. The fields are not even great. The bathrooms are literally 2 steps from the food. And they pump them during the tournament next to the food. Just fyi! We will not be coming back till this place is safe and has this figured out. This is the worst venue we have ever played at! Social media and the news have been contacted. Hoping for some help in solving this!!

This is / was farmland for growing crops and should not be used for large events and have humans attending. It simply not design for it !!!

This is the worst venue that could host a soccer tournament or any other highly populated event that has the potential for injury. Today, we had a severe injury at the field during a soccer game. (And this, by the way, is beyond the absolutely absurd parking situation…$5 to park in dirt with one way in and one way out) But I digress. The more important issue is what happens when there’s an injury…. - No trainer or medical personnel within reach when the injury occurred. - No emergency access to the fields available for emergency vehicles to access. - When the ambulance and fire trucks arrived they had to access the fields through one dirt road. - The tournament director did not want the ambulance to access the player (a minor no less) on the field, even though he was immobile. In other words, the director was more worried about the dying grass on the field than the child writhing in pain - The tournament director ALSO did not want to figure out how to open the gates to let the ambulance in, and therefore…. - Due to the one way enter and exit and no emergency access, the paramedics took 43 minutes to arrive after the injury occurred This was disappointing, unacceptable, unprofessional (see home made signage below), and inhumane. It’s pathetic and should be shut down until competent leadership can make it safe for all patrons. Do not - I repeat, do not - participate in any tournaments at this terrible venue unless you have a high aptitude for risk. Especially if your kid is competing. Shameful.

What I witnessed at this youth soccer tournament was completely unacceptable and honestly alarming. A child suffered a severe leg injury during a game—both bones in the lower leg were clearly broken. This was an obvious emergency requiring immediate medical care. However, the way the situation was handled was shocking. Emergency responders were delayed from reaching the field due to access issues controlled by the venue. Despite being near a main road, they were not let in through the closest access point and were instead forced to reroute. It took approximately 43 minutes for the ambulance to reach the injured child. Let that sink in—over 40 minutes for an ambulance to get to a child with a major fracture. There was also no visible certified athletic trainer present to assist in those critical early moments. For an event hosting large numbers of children, that is inexcusable. Youth sports organizations have a duty to protect players. That includes having trained medical personnel on-site and ensuring emergency vehicles can access fields immediately—no delays, no excuses. This was not just disorganized—it was dangerous. Until serious changes are made to emergency access and on-site medical support, I would strongly question whether this is a safe environment for kids to play in.

It is absolutely unbelievable and furthermore unacceptable that a sporting venue for children would refuse to allow an ambulance onto their not-so-precious soccer field when a child's limb was on the line. Life, limb, or eyesight are the priority for emergency scenarios. Not the grass! Today during a 2012 soccer game a child had an extremely bad injury causing a tibia/fibula fracture with an obvious deformity needing immediate support. While the response times from EMS was reasonable. . .the delay was the lack of access to field #6. Which is adjacent to a major street if only the West Valley Events employees would have allowed EMS to access the gate. But no, we were told they had to drive around and wait causing a delay of 43 minutes for further higher level treatment for a minor. This is absolutely unacceptable. And they had zero trainer on site. For hundreds of children with the possibility of multiple injuries. This is unacceptable and will be escalated accordingly. In the meantime, do not have a major injury, heart attack, seizure or worse when out there or you will be at the risk for assistance from only the fans and family their watching their kids play while praying nothing major occurs.
