New Indoor Football Facility Approved For CCU

Student fees will not increase due to its construction that is expected to be complete by January of next year.

Coastal Carolina University is gaining a new amenity.

The S.C. fiscal accountability authority approved a new $20 million football facility. The 93,365-square-foot building will be located South of Brooks Stadium.

Documents state CCU does not have an adequate indoor practice location and the new facility could assist with alleviating conflicts among multiple sports for practice space.

The building will feature a full-sized synthetic turf football field, a coach’s tower, a training room, video recording platforms, lighting and sound systems, restrooms, and storage space, as well as high ceilings for special teams’ work.

Student fees will not increase due to its construction that is expected to be complete by January of next year. A groundbreaking ceremony is set for September 7th.
