The Naval Academy Athletic Association in conjunction with the USNA Foundation has accepted a leadership gift from an anonymous donor earmarked for constructing a new 33,000-square-foot lacrosse facility on the Yard. Additional commitments have also been realized and as a result, the NAAA is coordinating development efforts towards raising the $22 million necessary for construction. The process is advancing in cooperation with NAVFAC Washington and pending final endorsement by the Secretary of the Navy. The anticipated facility would be constructed adjacent to the Glenn Warner Soccer Facility on the Academy grounds.
The two-story Navy Lacrosse Center would celebrate the history and traditions of Navy Lacrosse, while serving as a testament to the Naval Academy’s commitment to the Physical Mission of the Brigade of Midshipmen. The men and women who play for Navy Lacrosse would train, learn and build relationships in one of college lacrosse’s preeminent facilities. Every area and detail of the Navy Lacrosse Center is designed for the development of our midshipmen and would provide the resources for the Navy men’s and women’s lacrosse programs to compete for and win championships at the highest level.
