Visit our Top 50 golf range in America for winter play!

It's winter and Skokie Sports Park is fully equipped for practicing your golf swing outdoors. Visit our enclosed first floor hitting stations, or The Bunker, our indoor simulator! All of our outdoor stations feature an automatic tee-up system, and TrackMan, a launch monitoring system with radar tracking.

In warmer weather, the Sports Park golf range features a two-story, 40 station structure, as well as additional grass tees. The facility also includes golf lessons, two miniature “adventure” golf courses – including the 18-hole Traveler’s Quest course and the 9-hole children’s Kid’s Quest course – as well as batting cages, and party tent rentals.

We again were named a Top 50 range!

For the twenty-third time since 1998, the Golf Range Association of America (GRAA) and Golf Range Magazine have named Skokie Sports Park one of the top golf practice centers and learning facilities in America, ranking Sports Park a top 50 stand alone range.

The GRAA, based in New Canaan, Conn., was formed in 1991. It publishes the industry's leading driving range trade publication, Golf Range Magazine, six times per year.
