Rider University Recommendation
This project was the second phase of the Alumni Gymnasium’s refurbishment, expansion and improvement. The new 8,400 square foot basketball practice facility and 2,860 square foot coach offices were built directly behind the existing Alumni Gym. The new practice facility dramatically enhances the daily lives of the Rider student-athletes and coaches and is unique for a mid-major school. It is a great recruiting tool and will enhance player development. The facility also allows for flexible scheduling for the Alumni Gym. The new building is a pre-engineered metal structure with a clear span of 80′ and a height of 40′. The facility includes NCAA level athletic equipment and furnishings including a regulation wood sports floor system, lighting, and appurtenances.
