If you’re staying with us at Dominion Inn & Suites, you’ve already scored the best seat in the house. Located right on Williamsburg Road, we are the ultimate "home base" for sports fans. Whether you’re here to catch a 95-mph fastball or looking for a spot to burn some energy yourself, Sandston and the greater Richmond area offer a world-class sports scene.

Let’s dive into the best ways to experience sports near Sandston, VA, during your stay.

The Main Event: Baseball at the New CarMax Park

You can’t talk about Richmond sports without mentioning the Richmond Flying Squirrels. As the Double-A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, this team brings an electric atmosphere that’s about more than just home runs—it’s about the memories.

The big news? The transition to the brand-new CarMax Park. Located just a short drive from our front doors, this state-of-the-art facility has replaced the aging "Diamond," offering:

• Enhanced Sightlines: Not a bad seat in the house.
• Local Flavors: Gourmet concessions that go way beyond basic hot dogs.
• Family Fun: Frequent fireworks displays and mid-inning entertainment.

Pro Tip: If you're traveling with a group, check our guestrooms to ensure everyone has a comfortable place to crash after those extra-inning night games.

Beyond the Diamond: High-Octane Action

Not a baseball fan? No problem. The Sandston area is a crossroads for various sporting disciplines.

1. Racing at Richmond Raceway

Just north of Sandston lies the "Action Track." If you have a need for speed, the Richmond Raceway hosts premier NASCAR events that draw fans from across the country. Even on non-race weekends, the facility often hosts local driving experiences and community events.

2. Soccer and Multi-Sport Complexes

Richmond is a massive hub for youth and amateur sports. Complexes like Dorey Park and the Henrico Sports & Events Center are constantly buzzing with tournaments. If you’re a "sports parent" in town for a weekend trophy hunt, you'll appreciate our proximity to these venues.

Play Like a Local: Parks and Recreation

Sometimes, you don't want to watch—you want to play. Luckily, Sandston is home to some of the finest green spaces in Henrico County.

• Taylor Farm Park: This is the new "crown jewel" of Sandston recreation. With massive playgrounds, walking trails, and open fields, it’s the perfect place for a morning jog or a quick game of catch.
• The First Tee of Greater Richmond: Looking to work on your swing? There are several premier golf courses nearby that offer challenging layouts for all skill levels.
