    About Fun Fieldz

    Fun Fieldz offers franchise units that bring a range of miniature, authentic sports fields to your location to create a unique and memorable experience. Yes, we take the ball game out to you! Fun Fieldz was created by fathers as a way to compete with video games, computers and social media. We wanted to get our children off the couch and outside for good old active fun. We realized that what we had created was not just a great way to keep kids active, but also a chance for adults to reconnect with their childhood and a way to build stronger relationships between family, friends and co-workers. We launched our company in 2012 and have been building the Fun Fieldz experience every day since.
