Three baseball fields and a two-story, 86,000-square-foot indoor sports training facility are being planned as part of a 27.5-acre sports park in Hanover County that developers say will draw regional traffic.

The county’s Planning Commission is scheduled to weigh a permit request for the proposed venue, called RVA Sports Park, at its 7 p.m. meeting tonight. If the planners allow the proposal to proceed, it would then be considered by the Board of Supervisors.

The facility, which would be open year-round and be located on the western side of Lakeridge Parkway near Marvin Lane, would include fields for baseball and softball, as well as indoor space for sports such as basketball, volleyball and hockey, said Brian Hyde, one of three management partners involved in the sports park’s conception.

A weight facility and restaurants would also be included as part of the indoor facility. A fourth field is planned later.

Hyde, who owns Performance Physical Therapy and Sports Training in Mechanicsville with his wife, said the facility would cater to youth and adult sports and draw 400,000 visits each year.
