How Benton Families Access Elite Youth Sports Training at AcroSports

Specialized Gymnastics and Baseball Instruction Worth the Drive From Bossier Parish

Benton has grown steadily as families relocate into Bossier Parish looking for a quieter setting while staying connected to the metro area — and that growth has created real demand for youth activity programming that local options do not always satisfy. AcroSports and The Fieldhouse, located on American Way in south Shreveport, is within a reasonable drive from Benton and offers the kind of structured, multi-sport environment that a smaller community typically cannot support on its own. The 38,000 square foot facility brings gymnastics, baseball training, after-school programs, and seasonal camps under one roof, giving Benton families a single destination for year-round youth development.

Louisiana summers hit Bossier Parish hard, and Benton families know the challenge of keeping active kids engaged through the long stretch of out-of-school months. Unlike outdoor programs that get sidelined by heat and humidity, AcroSports operates entirely indoors — a climate-controlled facility that runs its full schedule regardless of the weather outside. Owners Bill and Lainie Hardy have built this program over more than 30 years, and the coaching staff's verifiable credentials in gymnastics and baseball create a training environment that parents can trust from the first visit forward.

Programs That Fit Every Stage of a Child's Development

Gymnastics at AcroSports begins with the Tiny Tots preschool program for children as young as 18 months and scales through recreational classes, transitional levels, and competitive team training for dedicated athletes. The gymnastics floor spans more than 12,000 square feet with dedicated apparatus for each discipline, and a separate preschool room gives the youngest students the focused space they need. Baseball players from Benton gain access to The Fieldhouse's 10,000 square foot indoor turf field, batting cages, pitching mounds, and Rapsodo tracking technology — a level of data-driven coaching infrastructure that simply is not available in smaller markets.

Booking early gives Benton families the best chance of landing the class time or lesson format that fits their schedule before spots fill. Private baseball lessons are available in 30-, 45-, and 60-minute sessions with individual, semi-private, and group formats, and discounted 4-pack and 10-pack bundles reduce the cost of consistent training over time. Summer day camps, Friday Fun Nights, and birthday party events round out the calendar for families who want more than just weekly classes. A sibling discount and a 10% military and hero discount are available to qualifying households.
