The Wooden Family Fieldhouse—named for legendary basketball coach John Wooden—is a new 65,000-square-foot indoor recreation facility that helps Athletes in Action (AIA) continue its legacy of enriching young athletes’ lives. The Fieldhouse caters to various indoor hardwood sports such as basketball, volleyball, pickleball, and more. The signature Championship Court can accommodate up to 1,200 attendees. Before this facility, there were no indoor sports venues at AIA’s Total Athletes Complex, and it is estimated that 300,000 people will visit the new world-class facilities every year.
After previously supporting a number of projects on the AIA campus over several decades, LJB provided civil and structural engineering for this new state-of-the-art facility and expanded training campus. LJB is proud of its long-term involvement with the AIA mission and campus, and are honored to be part of shaping the culture of sports ministry through this project.
