AUBURN -- The Auburn University Board of Trustees on
Friday approved plans for a multipurpose indoor practice facility for
football and other sports at Auburn. The facility will feature a
100-yard field and will allow Auburn football, baseball, softball,
soccer and track teams to practice indoors during inclement weather.
"We appreciate the vision and leadership of Dr. Gogue and the Trustees
in approving the multipurpose indoor practice facility," Director of
Athletics Jay Jacobs said. "The indoor facility is yet another brick in
the foundation we are building for Auburn football and other sports
that will train there. This facility will be financed entirely by
private funds that we intend to raise, so the support of the Auburn
Family will be critical as we press ahead. Today's vote is another step
forward as we continue to methodically execute our master facilities
plan with the support of the president and the Trustees."
Construction on the 92,000 square-foot, $16 million facility is expected
to be completed by the fall of 2011.
