Hard Knocks has two 12,000-square-foot indoor arenas. Our combat arenas are fully air-conditioned, well lit when we want them to be (we also have night skirmishes), and have plenty of parking and easy access. This is no repurposed building - the facility was constructed for Hard Knocks in early 2007 and we are its first occupant. When playing at Hard Knocks, you will never get rained out, suffer from heat exhaustion, or be distracted by other outdoor annoyances.
The Office Arena - The Hard Knocks office arena is themed to resemble a corporate urban environment. Its authentic details include a drop ceiling, fluorescent lighting, and several single-person offices for close quarters combat (CQB). Inside the office arena, combatants will navigate obstacles like cubicles, filing cabinets, and desks, and other props will provide cover. You won't find any inflatable obstacles here. Additionally, since our weapons have muzzle flash, we let the combatants control the lighting in the arena as part of their strategy and tactics.
The Warehouse Arena - The best thing about our warehouse arena is that it's fully air-conditioned. When entering the warehouse arena, you will see 24-foot ceilings, ramps, beams, and other authentic details that are functional parts of the warehouse. The remaining obstacles are items such as crates, barrels, and equipment typically found in a warehouse. The warehouse arena has a much more open feel, perfect for sniper fire and anti-personnel mines.
The Coliseum - If the office arena is a fictional company and the warehouse arena is that company's distribution center for all its sinister dealings, it's only natural that they be connected. On special occasions and for some special events, we will open both up as one giant arena. There are several pass-through opportunities between the two, including several large roll-up doors and a few single-person doors, so you will never hit a bottleneck. Just imagine the possibilities in over 24,000 square feet of themed air-conditioned space!
