An Indoor practice facility is a specialized structure designed to provide athletes with a controlled environment for training and practice sessions indoors. The sports are typically outdoor sports such as football, soccer, track and field, baseball/softball, lacrosse, ultimate Frisbee, rugby, and pickleball. The facility can also include a weight room, locker rooms, and storage space for sports equipment. The field is typically synthetic turf and line marks can be drawn for the multi-purpose facility.[1]
Baseball and softball indoor practice facilities can have a marked infield, batting cages, drop down nets, portable pitchers mound, and pitching machines.[2]
An indoor track can be placed around a shortened football field, like the E.J. Nutter Training Facility for the Kentucky Wildcats football,[3] or modified tracks with sharper corners can be installed, or other types of multi-purpose surfaces could be placed inside the track.
