Nutter Field House - Indoor Track & Field
The
University of Kentucky Athletics Department is at the forefront of college athletics
in terms of indoor practice facilities. As proof, UK boasts the Nutter Field
House, an $8.5 million climate-controlled structure that is used for winter conditioning
and indoor track and field meets.
The facility features an artificial turf football playing field of 108,000
square feet, surrounded by a six-lane, 290-meter track. One of the most unique
features of this 132,00-square foot, multi-million dollar showplace is the
electronic netting system. The system allows for different combinations of
sports to practice safely and simultaneously by dividing the playing field
into multiple practice areas.
In 1996, 2001, 2004, 2007, 2009 and 2012 the facility was the site of the SEC Indoor
Track and Field Championships.
