Terrible experience from a spectator standpoint! We had to stand all weekend on the track to see the score of games because the only seating is one metal bleacher per court. 20 dollars per person to enter and 5dollars to park per day. Definitely a money racket!

Great atmosphere every time we go. Food is great and the employees keep the bathrooms so clean! That is very commendable being that there are hundreds of people there all the time.

Refereed the Wrestling Southern Duel's National Tournament and had a great time. Very very nice facility and lots of parking. Enjoyed my time there quite a bit. Hoover is a very nice place to visit. I hope to be at this tournament the same time next year.

Great location, very clean facilities with tons of parking. Restrooms are clean with no line. Tons of basketball courts with food area. Plenty of shopping and restaurants within the area. Hotels are nearby within the Galleria Mall down the road. Plan on spending $5 for parking and generally $22 entry fee depending on the event.

This review is related to the climbing center at the Finley Center. This may be one of the best places for kids in the city. There are numerous climbing walls for different levels of experience and ability. The staff is super friendly and encouraging. They make the experience so great for the kids and that makes it great for the parents. Prices are very reasonable. It's a great way to burn some energy in a rainy day.

Great walking track. Hoover residents come free. Clean and well airconditioned. Im going to learn pickleball. Kind of a cross between, bad mitten, hand ball, and ping pong.

I was one of three people who fell at the Finley Center during a show in 2018. The reason we all fell was because the staff put down the wrong ramp at the vendors' entrance. Mistakes happen, but the Finley Center took no responsibility at all. The EMTs who were there offered to take me to the ER, but I said no. I was the only person there manning my booth, and I though I could shake it off. I later took myself.I had no insurance, so I didn't want to incur huge bills. I tried to exist with the pain. I ended up calling the Finley Center to see if they would cover my medical costs. Bottom line? No. They dragged it out, hoping I would go away. They tried to blame the organization hosting the event. That was wrong. That organization didn't cause the problem.Fast forward a year. I had to get a total reverse shoulder replacement. A minimum of a year's recovery. The surgery cost $125,000. And 2 years of not being able to work. I will never swim a crawl again-im used to swimming daily. I will never be able to put my right hand behind my back. Of course, im right-handed.I hope the mayor of Hoover, his assistant and all the others involved can sleep at night. What they did was wrong. I asked for nothing except medical expenses.Do you really want to chance being hurt on their premises and having to go through what I have?? Think twice before going to the Finley Center.By the way, I chose not to sue. That's not how I work. Only lawyers and "experts" and insurance companies benefit.

I truly enjoyed coming there for a basketball tournament. I love the faculty because I had never seen one like that before. I also had the pleasure of meeting a former NFL player, which my wife took a picture with.

Good place to play pickleball. Takes some time getting used to floors because of multicolored wood planks.. also, not very well air-conditioned. Pouring sweat after just one game of play. Felt a little stuffy.

Went to the gun show...whole family went. It was a great experience and I found what I was looking for ! My 15 yr old daughter got herself a made on the spot dog tag for her bag and she also bought a pocket knife. I'm glad we went.
