Mitchell, SD 57301 United States Get Directions
Located just to the south of the main DWU campus, the DWU/Avera Sports and Wellness Complex was announced in the fall of 2014 with an official ground breaking. The facility opened early in 2016 and sits just across Norway Avenue from the Christen Family Athletic Center.
The new complex is 85,000 square feet and houses three indoor multipurpose sport courts. The courts are surrounded by a 200-meter track that plays host to indoor track and field events anchored by the Tiger track and field program. The DWU wrestling program also calls the complex home, as the facilities house a wrestling room for the Tigers to conduct practice. A community health and fitness center along with locker rooms also resides for use by DWU athletes and the community as a whole.
DWU and Avera are pleased to commemorate the contributions of two very important Dakota Wesleyan supporters. The building includes the Donna and Paul Christen Community Health and Fitness Center, along with the Glenda and Fritz Corrigan Fieldhouse and Athletic Institute.
