Renovation of the Blue Eagle Gym (Memo U2324-064)

We are pleased to share with the community that the much-anticipated renovation of the Blue Eagle Gym, or BEG, will commence this month.

We are undertaking this project in order to update and upgrade the facilities of this iconic structure, to make it better suited to the current and future needs of the broader University community, both as a sports and fitness facility and as a venue for cultural and academic activities.

When completed, the renovated BEG will be fully airconditioned, with highly improved acoustics. It will have a seating capacity of 4,850 for sporting events, and 7,000 for academic and cultural activities. It will house a 3-lane indoor running track, a FIBA-compliant competition basketball court, retractable seats that will open up the playing area to accommodate two practice basketball courts or two practice volleyball courts at any given time, a fitness gym and rehab center, multi-sports training areas, concessionaire stands, and an Ateneo Sports Hall of Fame, among many other facilities.

All the offices that used to be located in the Blue Eagle Gym are being relocated, and their new locations are listed below, with their contact coordinates:

The Project timetable is one year:  thus, completion date for this renovation effort is October 2024.

We understand that this renovation will result in some disruption to your normal activities, but we commit to do our best to minimize these disruptions and ensure the safety and well-being of the community throughout this process.

We thank the university community in advance for your patience and understanding.  We hope that everyone will share our excitement and eager anticipation for the unveiling of the “new” Blue Eagle Gym.
