Welcome to Riverfront Sports!
Developers Dave
Atcherley and Mike Vacendak had the dream of building a
one-of-a-kind indoor recreational facility for the people of
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area. That dream is now a reality!
Since opening November 8, 2004, the 87,000 square foot building is
buzzing with activity. It holds a full-size P.I.A.A. soccer
field (divided into 3 split fields) as well as three high
school hardwood basketball courts. The $4 million facility
is a fixed steel structure unlike fabric domes. It is the
only sports complex of its kind for over 100 miles!
All-Sports Enterprises (responsible for the materials
used in the construction of Riverfront) has rated Riverfront
#1 on a list of 500 buildings constructed nationally! You have to see it to believe it!!!
We also provide venues for football, flag-football, field
hockey, lacrosse, volleyball, softball, and baseball. There
are leagues, tournaments, and camps in addition to field and
court rentals. Some nights are designated “open” nights.
Training sessions are offered for those seeking to improve
their game. The facility houses a concession stand and two
party rooms for birthday parties or meetings. There is
something for everyone of every age. If you want to do it,
we will try to make it happen! Don’t miss your chance to
be involved in Scranton’s hottest new facility!
Come play where we play!

“Riverfront Sports is a great new recreational facility that
fills the need for an indoor venue for soccer, football, and
basketball. With the Ice Box indoor hockey located next
door, Memorial Stadium and other Scranton High School
playing fields across the street, and Weston Field two
blocks away, it is in the center of what is becoming the
region’s premier sports complex.”
