Hi Mary!
Welcome to planDisney! I am pumped that you are here with your question about Disney's All-Star Sports Resort. It sounds like you have picked the perfect resort location for your sport-loving son. He is going to love the over-the-top sports decor and theme of the resort!
At
Disney's All-Star Sports Resort, both buildings 7 and 10 of the Touchdown section are considered Preferred Rooms, so you more than likely won't be placed there with a standard room reservation. The Hoops Hotel buildings, however, do include standard rooms. In order to request a room in that section of the resort, I recommend
calling Disney Resort Hotel Reservations and asking them to note the request on your reservation. While they will do their best to honor the request, please be aware it cannot be guaranteed.
If your son is a fan of a little friendly family competition, consider a visit to one of Disney's miniature golf courses, either
Fantasia Gardens and Fairways Miniature Golf or
Winter Summerland Miniature Golf. The courses are so much fun and a great way to spend some downtime in between park visits.
Thank you for visiting planDisney, Mary. I hope you have an incredible vacation. If there is anything else we are able to assist you with, please let us know.
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
