ICA Sportzworx Stepney

Love this place, staff friendly and great place for our netball team!

Definitely do not recommend this place for social netball if I could do negative 5 I would.First time playing there and the umpires are absolutely the worst I have ever encountered.From the first game they picked on us and were nothing but bullies.I have never in my life even with all the professional sports I have played ever been treated the way the 3 umpires treated our team.They called us for even things the other team did wrong and things that were never done.We were told as we had new players that had never played, that none of us had played with nets that they would help with rules.Definitely not what happened and when ppl asked about a rule they were told to be quiet. And not in a nice way I might addAlso had 2 other teams come up to us at the end of the games saying hold on you will getbthrough it as they all copped that at the start. Were told they do it to every new team and the last ones got that bullying and treatment from the umpires for 2 seasons.Well sorry I'm an adult and I will not put up with umpires who can't umpire properly and favour teams that have been there yrs and pick on and bully new teams.It's absolutely disgusting they are still paid to do that job when you can see with all the bad reviews it happens all the time and alot do not post a review.

Had son's 10 year old party at the premises, very impressed. Party food was great and the activities were awesome. One kid said best party he has even been too. Congrats sportzworx

As a new team with players that hadn't played netball before we were excited to start the season and had asked if it was ok we needed brushing up on rules. Assured it was fine we started our first game. The umpires were extremely rude, belittled us and would not explain callings or rules when they called us out. The next game was worse, the umpires huddled together when we walked in making it obvious they were talking about us then they favoured their friends in the opposing team, to the point it was unbelievable. Felt like high school! They belittled us and made us feel completely uncomfortable. The other team then told us they had state players and had been playing together for 20 years! What a joke. The next games went the same with the last game being absolutely disgusting. I asked the umpire to please watch contact from my opposing player (who had been really rough to the point of hurting me) and was told to deal with it. They then started picking us up on everything, things we hadn't even done. Then talking to the other team during the quarters and looking at us. It was absolutely ridiculous and we walked out never wanting to go back again, which we wont. If you want to play social netball, absolutely DO NOT go here!

Absolutely disgusting. The venue is great for social sports however if you are wanting to play social netball, think again. The two umpires make playing netball a horrible time. They get a thrill out of calling out teams on mistakes they haven't done, yet favour their friends and turn a blind eye to them. The umpires need to get off their high horses and just have fun. You coach social netball - you need to chill.

Good indoor cricket for kids and youngsters. Parking can be tight at times when busy.

Great indoor sporting facility, well cleaned and maintained. Good food and drink facilities with friendly staff.

The birthday was arranged in the ICA.Children played soccer, Cricket Etc.

DO NOT PLAY SOCIAL NETBALL HERE!!!! My first problem is the time it takes the umpires to arrive. The games are automatically timed, the timer starts at the set game time we are given each week. Our team members are always on court and ready to go at this time. Most weeks it takes the umpires 3 or more minutes into a game we have payed $84 to play, to be ready to start the game. Over the course of a season, this adds up to almost an entire game worth of nothing, which we have payed for! And this doesn’t even include how long it takes them to get back on after the quarter times! The second problem is the bias umpiring. They are inconsistent every week, depending on which team they are more friendly with. They are also known to make up netball rules as the game goes on such as not walking into the centre circle fast enough???? I understand that my team was new and did break the rules quite often, however these rules should be applied to every person on court regardless of which team they are on, I find it ridiculous that they can be so blatantly bias and not face any repercussions! The third problem is the way they treat the new teams. From my knowledge, we were the only team in my league that hadn’t played at the ICA before and for most of my players, netball at all. There was no sympathy or barely ever an explanation to the rules. I am not saying that they had to walk us through the entire game, but our players were getting quite obviously frustrated when they were getting picked up for the same rule repeatedly, considering this is social netball, you would think there was a little more care given to new teams. There was even one incident where our player was kicked out of the court for voicing his confusion of why he was getting penalised. It is embarrassing the standard that this business holds themselves to, and I can see from the other reviews, many others have had the same expirience.

Best place for Indoor Cricket and Indoor netball. Great little sporting community. Cheap food cheap drinks and a bar for the adults. Check them out.
