Tuscaloosa Academy Unveils Plans for New Athletics Facility
The secret is out at Tuscaloosa Academy.
The school announced plans for a new 23 thousand square-foot, state-of-the-art athletic center. Tuscaloosa Academy hopes to break ground on the project in December.
The facility will include a tournament-size gymnasium, locker rooms, a football field house, and a fully outfitted weight room.
Multiple sports and practices can happen at once within the facility. This will allow families to gather, compete, and practice together under one roof.
New $10M Pickleball Facility Proposed for Downtown Detroit
The City of Sterling Heights will present a proposed site for its new indoor pickleball facility today at the City Council meeting, marking a major milestone in the implementation of the Pathway to Play and Preservation millage approved by voters on Nov. 5.
The proposal includes the purchase of property at 35630 Van Dyke Avenue, located near 15 Mile Road, which would be transformed into a state-of-the-art pickleball facility. The $10 million investment—covering both the property purchase and construction—would establish the first municipally-funded indoor pickleball facility in Macomb County and only the second in the state of Michigan.
Nebraska Athletics Unveils $12M Multimedia Facility
Nebraska Athletics continues to have the best facilities in the nation.
While that phrase brings up images of weight rooms, meeting spaces, locker rooms, and more of the spaces that are meant for the Husker athletes, NU has unveiled an area that helps bring fans closer to the action. Nebraska Athletics has unveiled its new multimedia production facility that houses HuskerVision, Creative and Emerging Media, Huskers Radio Network, and the athletic photography team.
Built on the second floor of North Stadium, in the old Husker Football offices and team space, this newly renovated 25,200-square-foot facility features three 4K/HDR control rooms, a production studio, Husker Radio Network studio headquarters, and still photography studios. The centralized control rooms and rack rooms will support in-venue replay boards and B1G+ live broadcast productions from eight athletic venues.
The units moved into the new facility earlier this summer, and HuskerVision will produce its first football game from the new facility this Saturday when the Huskers open the home season against Akron.
