Clemson Women’s Sports Program Expansion Celebrates Grand Opening

CLEMSON, SC — Clemson University’s new women’s sports facilities are ready for action. General contractor Brasfield & Gorrie led construction on the new and upgraded facilities for the university’s lacrosse, gymnastics, and rowing teams. Clemson’s women’s sports program expansion is the largest recent expansion of women’s sports in the nation.

"It has been an honor to lead this construction team — which included many women, Clemson students, and graduates — as we built spaces that will expand opportunities for Clemson's female student athletes," said Kimberly Bailey, Brasfield & Gorrie Senior Project Manager. "The facilities will support the female athletes’ endeavors to achieve their highest athletic performance while giving them a place to rest and recover. We're excited for the future of the female athletic programs at Clemson University, and we look forward to cheering on the Tigers in 2024." 

The new facilities are:

  • A 9,000-square-foot lacrosse operations facility
  • A 6,900-square-foot, 1,000-seat lacrosse stadium with press box
  • A new lacrosse field
  • A 24,000-square-foot gymnastics operations and training facility
  • A 10,000-square-foot elite athlete recovery center
  • Addition of a Players’ Village outdoor space
