Batting cages
Indoor turf soccer field

The Kentucky Sports Facility opened on January 15 and has already hosted two major events — a soccer tournament in January and a volleyball tournament in February.
In addition, General Manager Brett Roddy reported at a February Madisonville City Council meeting that since opening, approximately 2,000 daily passes have been sold, generating $13,771 in revenue. He also reported the facility is now open for walkers from Monday through Friday.
