Official operator pages checked October 17, 2026. This is an area shortlist, not a Springfield city inventory or live availability. Western Mass operates several branches; Holyoke and St. Rocco's member prices are not established Agawam prices. Confirm the specific branch, reservation and seasonal rate.
Western Mass Golf Simulators — MCU Training Center
Nearby Agawam — 153 Springfield Street, MCU Training Center
The operator provides a dedicated Agawam booking link and identifies MCU Training Center as one of its four simulator locations. Its general hours are 9 AM–9 PM, with early and late sessions by appointment. Call to confirm the Agawam bay, equipment, party limit and rental total. The homepage's explicit hourly member and nonmember prices apply to Holyoke Elks and St. Rocco's, not automatically to MCU.
Nearby Westfield — 99 Springfield Road, Shortstop Bar & Grill building
Virtual golf includes practice tools, simulated courses and multisport play, with an adjoining lounge and Shortstop food and bar service. The official in-season rental table lists $50 per simulator hour or $25 per half hour. A credit card guarantees the reservation, but guests check in and settle payment at the desk; splitting the bill is allowed. Directions say to drive past Shortstop's entrance and patio to the red door.

Indoor golf in Springfield: FAQ
Are these simulator venues inside Springfield, Massachusetts?
No. MCU Training Center is in Agawam, and Par 4 The Course is in Westfield. Compare the drive from Springfield rather than treating either as a city-center venue.
Which Western Mass Golf Simulators branch should I select for Agawam?
Select MCU – Agawam. The operator gives its address as 153 Springfield Street; Hadley, Holyoke Elks and St. Rocco's Westfield are different branches.
Do the posted Holyoke Elks prices apply to the Agawam simulator?
That is not established. The homepage specifically assigns those member and nonmember prices to Holyoke Elks and St. Rocco's. Ask for MCU's own booking total and guest allowance.
What does Par 4 The Course publish for an in-season rental?
Its table lists $50 for one simulator hour or $25 for a half hour. It labels these in-season rates, so confirm the applicable season and selected reservation.
Where is Par 4 The Course's entrance?
At 99 Springfield Road in Westfield, drive into the Shortstop Bar & Grill property, continue past the restaurant entrance and patio, and look for the red door.
Does Par 4 automatically charge the card used to reserve?
The rate page says the card guarantees the booking but is not automatically charged when you arrive. Check in at the desk; cash, credit and debit payments and split bills are accepted.
