INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Fever on Thursday released the first look inside their under-construction new downtown Indianapolis training facility.

The team unveiled the first interior renderings of the $78 million, 108,000 square-foot, three-story Indiana Fever Sports Performance Center, which it says was “designed as a fully integrated, year-round hub for performance, recovery, lifestyle and team connection.”

The center will be located at 30 S. Alabama St., near Gainbridge Fieldhouse and on the former site of the Marion County Jail. The organization broke ground on the facility in September, and it’s expected to open before the 2027 WNBA season.

The team said the renderings, which can be seen below, highlight “signature spaces” including (descriptions from the Fever):

• Light-filled, dual practice courts anchored by a fully integrated performance environment, including strength and conditioning, sports medicine and rehabilitation
• A comprehensive recovery suite featuring hydrotherapy pools, infrared sauna, red light therapy, and dedicated massage and treatment rooms
• “The Hub,” a central gathering space designed to celebrate team achievements and Fever history, while fostering connection and daily interaction among players and staff
• A luxury, next-generation player locker room featuring individual player studios with dedicated space for preparation, recovery and personal expression, along with a private lounge
• A chef-driven nutrition program, including a full-service kitchen, nutrition and smoothie bar, and indoor-outdoor dining spaces designed to fuel performance
• Lifestyle and support amenities such as a content production studio, podcast room, player nail/hair/makeup salon, golf simulator, and player dedicated child care spaces

The Fever said the facility will also have “fan-facing experiences” on the ground level, including a Hall of Excellence showcasing team history, and a team store. 

In addition, the Sports Performance Center, which the team says will be the “largest and most advanced training facility in the WNBA,” will include front office and coaching spaces, collaborative meeting areas and “premium player support amenities.”

“Every element of this facility has been intentionally designed around our players including how they train, recover, connect and live day to day,” Fever Team President Kelly Krauskopf said in a statement. “This will set a new standard for women’s sports and continue to position Indianapolis at the center of that momentum.”

“Throughout this process, player feedback and needs have been the top priority for this training center, and I am grateful that our organization continues to invest in the Fever and set the standard for player care,” Fever center Aliyah Boston said. “Every aspect of our experience has been thought of, supporting who we are as players on the court just as much as who we are as people off of it. I can’t wait until we make this building our home next season.”
