Athl etic Faci liti es Maste r PlanExecutive SummaryEXECUTIVE SUMMARYGeneralThe goal of this master plan is to maximize the experience of the fan and student athlete at Texas A&M University_A comprehensive master plan of Kyle Field and the west campus athletics facilities identifying current and future facilityneeds will assist Texas A&M in accomplishing this goal. The master plan will also incorporate needs identified in thecomprehensive facilities assessment. The facilities included in the master plan are:Kyle Field Area Master Plano Kyle Field Siadiumo Indoor Practice/Multi-Purpose Facilityo Brighl Complexo G. Rollie Whiteo Parking. West Campus Athletic Facilities with a specific focus on Olsen Fieldo Olsen Fieldo Soccer Stadiumo Practice Facility - Reed Arenao SoftballApproachThe O'Connell Robertson/Heery Team dedicated a large multi-disciplinary group of professionals to the master plan.The initia l effort was data gathering. This included visiting the site, researching existing documents and meeting withthe facility users including the respective coaches of each sport. After the existing data gathering was accomplished,a series of work sessions between the Design Team, TAMUS Facilities, Texas A&M Athletics and The 12th ManFoundation were held. The work sessions were conducted at intervals of two to three weeks. At each work session,the Design presented potential schemes for response and input from the A&M representatives. There comments wereincorporated into the revised schemes to be presented at the next work session. The results of the work sessionsare the body of this report.Kyle FieldA major focus of the master plan for Kyle Field is to address the deficiencies identified in the facilities assessment.This includes:Life safety and code issues.Siructural items. Accessibility issuesMechanical, Electrical and Plumbing issuesOther key components of the master plan include:Increased sealing capacily (between 103,000 and 114,000)Add and improve fan amenities such as concessionsIncrease the revenue production potential with areas such as suites and boxesTo achieve these goals, a series of well planned phases of renovations and additions will be required. These areidentified in the report attached.Indoor Practice/Multi-Purpose ComplexThis facility will serve as an indoor practice faci lity fo r numerous sports including football, softball, tennis and track.It will also serve as a competition stadium for indoor track meels and tennis tournaments. The University currentlydoes not have a facility where these Big XII events can be held in a championship arena. The size of the facility willbe dictated by the following components:Two full-size football fieldsAbility to punt on one sideAbility to hold a track tournament with 5000 spectatorsAbility to hold a tennis tournament with six courts.It is envisioned this facility will be connected with a future addition to the Bright Complex and be adjacent to the footballpractice fields.Bright ComplexThe Bright Complex was completed in fa ll of 2003. An addition is envisioned to the Bright Complex that will house anew weight room, kitchen, training table, dining hall and athletic offices. The proposed location of the addition willdisplace the Netum Steed building.G. Rollie White ColiseumThis structure was built in 1952 to serve Men's Basketball. It later served Women's Basketball and Volleyball in additionto Men's Basketball. In the 1990's, Reed Arena was built to serve Men's and Women's Basketball thus eliminatingmany of the functions held in G. Rollie White. G. Rollie was renovated during th e 1990's to serve Women's Volleyball.Due to its age and design, th e building is deficient in toileUconcession amenities, wheelchair accommodations, andhas many life safety issues to the pOin t that the State Fire Marshal has limited the occupancy to be much less thanthe seat number provided. Further complicating these issues, the coliseum structure impedes the exiting requirementfrom the adjacent Kyle Field football stadium.HEERY~~EJTexas A&M University'----------'.
