My manager coaches a Volleyball team and I came to watch and cheer his team on! They won! It was very good.

Western Branch Community Center is outstanding. We’ve been taking pickleball lessons here and love the updated facilities, including the multi-use gymnasium courts for pickleball, volleyball, and basketball. The entire center is well-maintained, with fitness rooms, game room, playground, and splash park — a true community gem that’s supported Chesapeake residents for years. Clean, welcoming, and excellent value. Highly recommend!

Im giving it a 1 because the gymnasium is overshadowed by all the good reviews mainly over how beautiful the property is overall and most of the non governed areas are free and spacious. The way the gyms managed is horrible. My son was so excited to join this gym and every time we show up here to play we get turned around. It feels like i paid for a membership for nothing. I can’t even stay with adult supervision by me and let my son jog on the treadmill because he’s too young to enter the fitness room. This has been a complete waste of time and money. I followed the calendar for Friday and got turned away again by saying the gym closes at 4:30 when it clearly says 6 on the calendar. This really needs to be addressed. Members should be able to enter the gym and shoot around freely as long as they follow the gym’s schedule. No one should be turning kids away an hour and a half early from what the schedule says.

The trails are hard to find by the kids playground at the entrance. I would recommend to park at the tennis courts and take the trail which runs on either side of the road around the outer areas of the park. The bugs are terrible in the summer but the fall, spring, and winter would be fine. It is almost two miles of dirt trails with slight up and down that runs along wetland and the outer portion of the sports park.

A favorite spot to bring the pup for a "field trip" We love to walk the trails. Please be sure to keep your dog leashed, my dog was rushed by a huge 100+ lb. German Shepherd when his owner was walking the trail through the woods with him off leash. I was left holding a leash while my 75 lb. lab/ hound mix was forced to defend himself while the Shepherd owner tried to call him off (to no avail). It was an ugly situation. We do like the park though. They have a great dog park as well.
