Blue Valley Activity Center BVAC - Independence, Missouri

The league and the owner would not address a Black child being called the “n” word during a game this past week, so this “Christian” league may not be safe for all children. Additionally, the refs don’t seem to have the ability to call any penalties or issue any cards based on overly aggressive behavior or parents, coaches, or children.

And her responses are even more pleasant.

This is probably THE WORST place to do sports at. The refs tell veteran parents of the sport that they don't know how the game is played and that we should just keep our mouths shut. Specifically the tall poofy black haired kid. Ref or not he does not get to talk to adults the way he did. The parents weren't even talking at the ref just amongst themselves. So until he gets his testosterone adjusted he shouldn't be a ref. Don't quote that your here for the kids then call the game off based on assumptions that you were being griped at when you werent

Management specifically Lynn won't respond to parent concerns when things happen. What kind of association won't at least respond to concerns?

Also having a prayer before every game is a little odd. Ur a church I get that, but not all kids and their families are religious and can take that as offensive since ur now forcing religion on their kids.

Pretty nice facility for the kids to play Soccer.
Decent field conditions. Concession stands are nice.

1. VERY BAD EXPERIENCE. if your going to host events. Do NOT penalize a team for defending a bad call on the opposite team. Thats right your referee penalized other parents for deffending THE OTHER TEAM over a bad REFF call. Your terrible referee said we are here for the kids and then takes it out on the kids and the parents by calling the game over That's one way to tell the parents to shut up i guess.

2. YOUR REFFS ARE BAD AND ILL TEMPERED. They play favorites and talk about coaches between them selves mid field and giggle about it. I've caught them doing so and let them know i heard it.

3. You DO NOT GET TO yell at parents who didn't say anything. That's right your referee turned around and targeted a parent that didn't even say a word.. then when that parent speaks up about it you end the game. And when you discuss things don't tell us we don't know anything about the game when we have coached in leagues before. WATCH WHAT YOU SAY.

over all there are better sports complexes to go to.
If your going to pray before every game because your a church event carry your selves in a better fashion.

Really did not like the way the coaches treated literal kindergarteners. Very weird that it’s also super religious—and I don’t mean a hint of religion or because it’s hosted by the church, I mean the people are cult-like. 1/2 the time weird parents were preaching or quoting scripture and were incredibly aggressive to kids that weren’t their own.

This is not the place for your kids. Unruly racist parents teaching their kids the same nonsense. Lynn does nothing to implement consequences to these people thus the behavior continues. Name calling, profanity, unsportsmanlike conduct, etc. BVAC needs new leadership. Lynn might consider a career at Waffle House, lord knows she'd fit right in.

I highly recommend having your kids play here. The people in the front office are friendly and accommodating. They truly want the kids to learn and have fun. I cannot say enough good things about them. I played here as a child and I am excited my son gets to as well. It is Christ centered and fun for the kids. The competition level is challenging without being over the top.

Very nice both inside and out--has a large gym and the soccer fields are nicely kept and sit in a semi-wooded area, away from the distraction of traffic or other businesses, homes, or other activity. The big guy in the picture is just one of several--apparently all residents there. He's friendly and does a great job greeting everyone!
