Great place to check out if you are a student at BYU.For full time students that obtain a free wristband, there is an entire indoor track you can use when the track team isn't. You also get access to a gym on the second floor, although it is often times crowded and there can sometimes be a line.All students are allowed a small locker (or several) to keep your items in. You just claim them at the beginning of the semester by putting a lock on the one you want and removing it by the end of the semester or they will just cut it off. There are always open lockers and the locker room is never crowded. There are showers too but I've never used those.There are water fountains everywhere and bathroom near the track, the locker room and the gym whenever you need them.I would highly recommend students take advantage of what BYU has to offer in this building for free simply for being a student.

BYU volleyball is always amazing they do very well across the nation and rank high. We always enjoy the games. I wish the side bench bleachers would get updated to chairs

Sat on those bleachers for stake conference and that was a horrible experience. Put some softer wood or something geez.

Awesome place to watch a volleyball game! I doubt there is any better environment in the country for it.

UPDATE: occasionally a girl will rudely ask everyone running on the track, mid run, if they have a wristband. This happens sporadically and I’ve never seen one of the groups of club/teenage athletes that aren’t allowed to train on the track get kicked off. Often these groups run the wrong way on the track, take up multiple lanes, and literally run into the joggers and walkers. And often after the girl asks everyone on the track if they have a wristband almost everyone leaves and the track sits pretty much unused the rest of the night. Way to promote health and wellness in your community BYU. Not to mention, I saw this girl go up and hound on little kids with no wristbands. What the?!? Just talk to the parents lady!But, I still adore this indoor track. It saves me in the winter when I can't run outside because of the pollution or cold or ice/snow. It is 5 laps a mile, but it doesn't feel that different from the average 4 laps per mile. Does make it a little tricky pacing for workouts, but it gives my brain something to do while I'm in pain haha. They do have certain hours it's open, so check online before going! If you want it to yourself go on a Saturday afternoon. It's also starts to get less crowded around 8-9pm.

It’s old, but really well run. While there could be an argument made for newer facilities, they do a good job with what they have.

Great events held here. The way it’s designed makes the noise echo that much more to get the energy in the room ramped up to the highest level.
