FIELD HOUSE

Highlighting the Field House at the Prince George's Sports & Learning Complex is the 200-meter, 6-lane indoor track. One of the few indoor track and field venues in the region, the Field House boasts the highest quality space and equipment for all indoor track and field events.

The Details
The Field House is designed to make track meets and practices easy to manage, participate in, and watch. Sprint lanes on both sides of the track allow simultaneous sprint races, and the excellent track surface is the best available for races of any distance. The computerized camera-based scoring system quickly displays the results of the runner's place, time, and team score on the full service scoreboard. An indoor throwing cage gives participants a chance to refine their techniques, while multiple areas for high jump, long jump, and pole vault allow field events to run quickly. Spectator seating for 3,000 gives an unobstructed view of the entire venue.

The open indoor area of the 75,000 square-foot Field House lends itself to non-track events. Overhead netting can be dropped down to partition off the infield from the track. The Field House is also a great space for exhibits and trade shows.

Programs and Services
Local teams and clubs are invited to contact us to set up regular practice and meets at the Field House. The facility is ideal for all levels and all ages of competition, from youth meets to Olympic-level events. Consultants from the Prince George's Sports & Learning Complex are available to help manage meets and run the scoring system. Meet officials are the responsibility of the team's club or meet managers.

Upcoming programs are planned to help youth participants improve their skills in all of the different track and field events. Youth camps are planned for summer time.

The Field House thrives with walkers during the community usage times. Patrons are allowed to walk and jog during designated dates and times throughout the month.
