good dinner place for LARGE Group (softball team)

[bjcaed]

We will be playing softball in July at Wide World of Sports. Some of us are doing a Disney vacation after some are not. I want to set up a dinner for our team and families that would have a taste of Disney for them. I was thinking a resort or Disney Springs for dinner. It would need to accommodate at least 40 people. any good ideas?
Thanks

With that many people and being less than 80 days away, I would first call the ADR line and see if they can find availability for 40 people at any of their locations. You can also check online to see if you can find something for 40, but by calling you might get someone how can help you by trying to break down the reservation to smaller groups to get you in somewhere.

Another option would be to check with Disney Meetings to see if you could block off a place at one of the resorts to have your get together. It could be more than your group wants to spend, but you could at least check to see what they say.

You'll need to call 407-939-3463 and ask for group dining. Hopefully, they'll be able to help you.

6o days is rather short notice and I dont know what your budget is.

Some will not have park tickets I presume?
I would check with Disney as others have stated. Captains Grille Maybe at the Yacht Club? (on the dining plan - 1 credit)

Maybe the Garden Grove at the Swan? (Not on the dining plan) I know they have a themed buffet at night and some nights are chip and dale I think. That is around $30 per adult.

Also for either one of those places you could combine the Boardwalk area and also consider the movie on the beach at the BC/YC (free) for those without park tickets. You can also rent surrey bikes there too. (Another entertainment option for those without the park tickets)

Good luck and hope it all works out for you.
