Ford Practice Facility
Ford Practice Facility
Opened in 2016, the University of Colorado’s Indoor Practice Facility (IPF) is already having a significant impact on CU’s teams.
Athletes from almost every sport are able to take advantage of the spacious 108,000 square foot, climate-controlled facility that boasts a full football field, a six-lane, 300-meter track and plenty of room for conditioning, agility drills and individual workouts. The track has the potential to be among the fastest indoor facilities in the world thanks to the long straightaways and the altitude advantage.
The Colorado football team uses it on almost a daily basis in the mornings for the offseason conditioning program and will have it available for regular season work for the first time in the fall of 2016. The track team conducts indoor workout sessions for distance runners and sprinters, and athletes from other sports such as soccer and lacrosse also make use of the facility for conditioning workouts, practices and individual skill sessions.
The IPF was designed for efficiency. It is connected directly to the main Champions Center weight room. Football players can walk directly from their locker room, through the weight room and into the IPF.
Olympic sports athletes now have locker facilities in renovated Dal Ward. They can now walk out of their locker rooms into the Champions Center tunnel and through the weight room into the IPF.
Also connected to the IPF are the Buffs Team Store and the CU Athletics Ticket Office, which are accessible easily from the three story parking garage located beneath the IPF.Directions
