Renderings of the future home of the Western Michigan men’s and women’s basketball programs and the WMU hockey program, the Athletics Performance Center and Kalamazoo Events Center, were unveiled June 5 at the State of Economic Development conference at the Radisson Hotel in Kalamazoo, Mich.
“An opportunity like this, to offer our student-athletes a facility that maximizes their training, practice, and competition experiences, is crucial,” Broncos hockey coach Pat Ferschweiler said in a statement. “It not only enhances our overall student-athlete experience but also positions us to recruit elite talent, propelling us towards our goal of winning championships.
“The prospect of having a competitive arena that puts us ahead of our competition is truly exciting and aligns perfectly with the needs of our fans, students, and, most importantly our student-athletes.”
The complex is expected to open in 2028.
