Force has a huge facility...

PLAINFIELD — A nonprofit youth sports group has found a new home in an industrial building in town.
Force Wrestling will move into a new location at 14411 S. Coil Plus Drive, now that village officials have approved a special-use permit for the site.
The club will occupy about 6,200 square feet, and would hold practices weeknights and Saturday mornings through mid-afternoon.
Each practice could have up to 30 wrestlers, with up to 180 kids participating in a season.
The wrestling organization isn’t the first non-industrial use to move into the industrial park on Coil Plus Drive.
Force Wrestling joins other youth-oriented businesses in that area, including cheerleading, volleyball and gymnastics organizations and another business offering indoor inflatable play structures.
The industrial market has been soft in recent years, and the sports businesses offer the village a chance to fill the vacant space, village planners have said.
“I’m sure glad that they finally found a home,” said Mayor Mike Collins.
Previously, Force Wrestling occupied a building on Center Street that was closed by the village for code violations, said Dean Marquez, building supervisor.
There were several businesses occupying the Center Street building, which didn’t have sprinklers installed, among other code violations, Marquez said.

That's just the wrestling room. There's a separate weight lifting and conditioning facility a few feet away.
